Delicious Way To Cook That Salmon!

[ShayFL]

I buy nut flours from Digestive Wellness and bought some pecan meal this last time. I used a small amount in some yummy spice cake but knew there had to be other uses for it. I made this tonight. Super easy and oh so yummy:

Pecan-Crusted Salmon with Honey Mustard Glaze (original recipe from betterrecipes.com)

Ingredients:

2 salmon fillets

1/4 c. honey

1/4 c. dijon mustard

1/8 c. olive oil, or as needed to thin glaze

1 T lemon juice

1 1/2 cup shelled pecans, finely ground

salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

In small bowl combine honey, mustard, oil, lemon juice for glaze using just enough oil to keep glaze from getting too thick (I added some salt and pepper to the glaze). (Salted & peppered the salmon before adding the glaze) Coat salmon lightly with glaze, then cover with ground pecans. Salt and pepper to taste. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Bake salmon on a baking sheet lined with foil for 12-15 minutes or until salmon flakes. Serve at once, top with more glaze if so desired.

So I had to make salmon..canned that is...I made patties for my cute little "buns" that turned out today to take to my 19 yr old dd. I hope she enjoys them

DH doesnt eat fish, but asked if this crust could work for chicken. I thought it could. So I Googled "Pecan Crusted Chicken" and found recipes. So I will try this same thing with chicken soon.

I tried to make pecan crusted chicken once and BURNED my pecan crust! LOL

that is a hard smell to get out of the kitchen!

sounds absolutely delicious- I miss dijon bad

This recipe sounds like it would be good without the pecan topping too - just with the dijon glaze...um!!!
