I am sharing a nice fish recipe which is fast and easy to make, and also easy to enjoy.
- 5 pieces of salmon or steelhead salmon fillets
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- 3 tbsp grainy Dijon mustard (or smooth, whatever you have in the house)
- 2 tbsp minced fresh dill
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 2 tsp lemon zest
- 2 garlic cloves, pressed
- ¼ tsp each salt and freshly ground pepper
Using a hand blender, combine all ingredients (except for the fish). Coat the bottom of a large frying pan with cooking spray or olive oil. Rinse the fish and place in the pan. Pour the marinade over the fish. Heat the fish on the stove on a high light until it starts bubbling, then cover and reduce heat to medium. Cook for 8-12 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish.
Note that the fish with continue to cook for a minute or two after being removed from the heat.
Serve with quinoa and a streamed veggie. Enjoy!
