Recipe of the Week: Honey-Glazed Salmon

In order to try and be a little healthier we tried this Honey-Glazed Salmon recipe.  It was very fast and easy.  We cooked it on our panini grill in the oven on broiler.  This recipe calls for quite a bit of fish (our servings are 3 oz each) so we made 4 - 3 oz fish with half of the honey mixture.  We ended up only eating 1 fish each so really this could serve 8 people.  We give this 4 out of 5 stars.

Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons minced shallots
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
• 4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets (about 1 inch thick)
• Cooking spray
• Thyme sprigs (optional)
  
  
  
  

Directions

Combine first 6 ingredients in a small bowl. Brush honey mixture over skinless side of fish. Place fish on a grill rack or broiler pan coated with cooking spray, and cook 6 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Garnish with thyme sprigs, if desired.
