Ingredients

4 salmon fillets (skin-on, 6 oz each)
3 tbsp Dijon mustard
2 tbsp honey
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 garlic clove, minced
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
2 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
8 lemon wedges (for serving)

Instructions

1

Pat 4 salmon fillets (skin-on, 6 oz each) dry with paper towels and season flesh-side with 1/2 tsp kosher salt and 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper.
2

In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp Dijon mustard, 2 tbsp honey, 2 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice, and 2 minced garlic clove to make the glaze.
3

Preheat grill to medium-high heat (about 400 degrees F). Brush the grates generously with oil to prevent sticking.
4

Brush the flesh side of the salmon with half the glaze. Place skin-side up on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes until you see grill marks and the fish releases easily.
5

Flip the salmon skin-side down. Brush the flesh with the remaining glaze and grill for another 4-6 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F (63 degrees C) and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
6

Transfer to plates, garnish with 2 tbsp chopped fresh dill, and serve with 8 lemon wedges (for serving).

Questions

How long does Grilled Salmon with Honey Mustard Glaze keep?

Refrigerate leftovers within two hours and eat them within two days (seafood turns fast). Reheat in a hot skillet rather than the microwave to keep the char.

Can I halve or double Grilled Salmon with Honey Mustard Glaze?

Yes. As written it serves 4. Every ingredient in this entry carries precomputed half and double quantities, and the app's batch dial rewrites them inside each step. Doubling on the grill just takes more surface area; keep the heat zones the same.
