Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, honey Dijon mustard, chopped green onion, and grated ginger. (2 minutes)

03

Step

Place the salmon fillet in a baking dish. Evenly spread the Dijon mixture over the top of the salmon, ensuring it's well coated. Season generously with freshly ground black pepper. (3 minutes)

04

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. (20-30 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the Dijon mixture.
To ensure even cooking, use a baking dish that closely fits the size of the salmon fillet.
A squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the cooked salmon will enhance the flavors just before serving.
