Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons sour cream
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 pound boneless salmon filet
- 3 tablespoons grainy mustard
- 1 lime
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 and line a rimmed baking dish with parchment paper.
- Mix the sour cream and one tablespoon of Dijon mustard together and spread it over the salmon. Place the salmon on the prepared baking dish and roast for 15 minutes.
- Cut the lime in half, and squeeze the juice from one half into a small bowl and mix with the grainy mustard. Cut the other half of the lime into wedges.
- When the salmon comes out the oven, spread the lime juice mixture over the top of it. Using 2 forks, pull it into chunks, sprinkle with chives and serve!
Notes
- Salmon: You want a boneless salmon filet that’s about 1 to 1½ inches thick so it roasts evenly and stays moist. We like Atlantic salmon if you can find it…it’s got a rich buttery flavor and holds up really well for roasting.
- Mustards: We like the combo of Dijon and grainy mustard, but you can mix and match whatever mustard you have on hand.
