Mustard and Brown Sugar Salmon

Ingredients

  • 4 (6 oz) salmon fillets, skin removed (about 1 ½ lb)
  • ½ cup light mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Italian herbs stir-in paste
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons spicy brown mustard
  • ¼ teaspoon curry powder
  • Cooking spray

Prep

    • Preheat grill.
    • Check fish for bones.

Steps

    1. Thaw salmon if needed. Preheat grill (or grill pan) on medium-high. Combine mayonnaise and herbs paste; chill until ready to serve.
    2. Combine sugar, mustard, and curry powder. Coat both sides of salmon with spray and place on grill (wash hands); grill 2–3 minutes without flipping.
    3. Flip salmon, then brush with mustard mixture. Cover and grill 2–3 more minutes until centers of fillets flake easily and are 145°F. Drizzle mayonnaise mixture over salmon. Serve.

Herbed Rice

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
  • 2 (10 oz) bags frozen cooked brown rice
  • 1 tablespoon Italian herbs stir-in paste
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper

Steps

    1. Preheat large sauté pan on medium-high 2–3 minutes. Chop parsley finely.
    2. Combine rice, herbs paste, salt, and pepper in pan; cook and stir 3–4 minutes until thoroughly heated.
    3. Stir in parsley; serve.

Serving Suggestions

  • Complete your meal with fresh salad blend, dinner rolls, and fresh fruit for dessert.
  • Lay fish skin-side down over inverted bowl; the curve lifts the bones. Use fingertips to feel for bones that may not be visible.
  • Don’t want to grill? You can prepare the salmon in large sauté pan on medium instead; cook time will be about the same.
