Honey Mustard Glazed Summer Salmon with Zucchini Salad

August 15, 2020 by Tonja Leave a Comment

This dish has all the components of a beautiful August dinner—in-season Sockeye Salmon roasted to perfection and served with a fresh crop of zucchini, summer squash, and cherry tomatoes.  I toasted some pine nuts for good measure and made a flavorful honey mustard sauce to coat the salmon. Its a stunner for any dinner party and also simple enough for a healthy weeknight meal.

Author: Tonja Engen
Ingredients
  • For the Salmon:
  • 2 lbs. Salmon filet (Sockeye is my favorite)
  • ¼ cup stone ground mustard
  • 2½ Tbls. honey
  • 6 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1½ tsp. paprika
  • Zucchini and Summer Squash Salad
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 Tbls. honey
  • 1 lemon, zest and juice
  • 1½ tsp. salt
  • ½ tsp. ground pepper
  • 2-3 zucchinis, thinly sliced
  • 1-2 medium yellow summer squash, thinly sliced
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
  • ⅓ cup ​green onions, minced
  • ¼ cup toasted pine nuts
Instructions
  1. Heat oven to 400° F. Line a rimmed baking pan with aluminum foil.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk the stone ground mustard, honey, garlic, salt, pepper and paprika.
  3. Place the salmon skin-side down on the foil. Top with the honey mustard sauce and spread it out to cover the whole filet.
  4. Bake in a preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until salmon flakes easily with a fork.
  5. While the salmon is baking, make the zucchini salad. In a small bowl, whisk the olive oil, lemon juice, honey, salt and pepper until fully incorporated.
  6. Toss in a large bowl with zucchinis, summer squash, tomatoes and green onions.
  7. Serve the zucchini salad directly on top of the filet and sprinkle with pine nuts.
