Honey Mustard Baked Salmon on a plate.

Little G has become a big salmon lover. He gave me three thumbs way up last week when I made him salmon teriyaki. 

He asked me to make more salmon recipes so I made this amazing, absolutely delicious honey mustard baked salmon for him.

Recently, I have been playing with east-meets-west cooking techniques, marrying Asian ingredients with western recipes and the end result is always so much more delicious than the original recipe.

For this classic honey mustard style of cooking, I decided to give it a slight twist, with Japanese flavors.

First I marinated the salmon with garlic, honey and mustard, but added Japanese cooking sake to the salmon.

Sake is Japanese rice wine and I love a bit of alcohol in my food. The sake rids the salmon of fishy smell and taste, and gives depth to the overall taste structure.

To spice up this honey mustard baked salmon, I also added a good pinch of cayenne pepper, which is my secret ingredient to jazz things up.

As you can see, this recipe is absolutely scrumptious and mouthwatering. The salmon is glistening with the honey mustard marinade. The salmon is juicy and mild tasting with no fishy smell.

Little G gave me 3 thumbs way up again and finished his dinner in no time. The active time is practically 10 minutes, so add this to your weekly dinner rotation. Enjoy!!

      You can skip it, or you can use white wine.

    I used cooking sherry and it worked great! I was worried with the 12 minute cooking instruction, it looked rawish still when I took it out but it was perfect! Very moist and DELICIOUS!

    This was really good! I’m not a huge salmon fan but I keep trying new recipes to find ways of eating it that I enjoy cause it’s so good for you! This was a huge hit and I will definitely be making it again. Even my kids loved it (my three year old had thirds!).
    Thanks for the great recipe! It’s a keeper!

    Another one of your great recipes. I always have problems cooking fish. I undercook it, I taste it, I cook it some more, and then it’s overcooked – which is worse than anything. But I’ve learned to trust your instructions, and the salmon was absolutely perfect. Because of what I had on hand, I substituted regular mustard, white wine, and chopped scallion for Dijon, sake, and parsley, and it was still extremely delicious. I can’t even imagine how much better it will be after I pick up the ingredients in your recipe. And the cayenne really added something. I’m going to remember to try that with some other recipes.

    Once again, thank you for developing and sharing your wonderful recipes.

    I forgot to add: Using parchment paper made everything so much easier. I was able to slide the fish
    onto my plate by holding the paper, and it made clean-up a pleasure.

    Very tasty dish. Didn’t use sake and baked with fresh chopped rosemary. My husband loved it. Baked for @ 14-15 minutes and was perfect. Served with salad and green beans. Very healthy dinner.

    My filet of salmon is 1.22 pounds… do you think this will be enough marinade? And will white cooking wine work? Thanks!

      I think you can add the marinade by extra 50%. Yes, white cooking wine works! :)

      Garlic powder is not really a substitute for fresh garlic but I guess you can use 1 or 2 teaspoons?
