Salmon is one of our weekly go-to meals. Not only is it so simple to prepare, but, as we all know, there are so many health benefits to consuming wild seafood on a regular basis. Wild salmon in particular is an excellent source of high-quality protein, omega-3 fatty acids, B-vitamins, and vitamin D (which our population is extremely low or deficient in).
This particular take on salmon comes with a mustard sauce spread over the top, wrapped in aluminum, grilled, and then broiled uncovered for about 2-3 minutes to get the top nice and crispy.
Wild Salmon with Mustard Sauce
Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 lb wild salmon
- 2 garlic cloves diced
- 2 TBS mayo
- 1 TBS fresh lemon juice
- 4 tsp spicy brown mustard
- 1 tsp sea salt
- ½ tsp stevia *optional if you like a honey mustard flavor
- Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat grill on medium heat. Lay salmon on enough aluminum foil to wrap the top. Whisk diced garlic cloves, mayo, lemon juice, mustard, sea salt, stevia, and pepper in bowl. Pour over salmon evenly, enclose the salmon in the aluminum foil. Place on grill and cook for 14-16 minutes. Preheat oven on broil. When salmon is finished on the grill open the aluminum so top is exposed. Place in the preheated oven and broil for 2-3 minutes.

“Fall” Garden Fresh Salad
Salad is one of those sides that just doesn’t seem very “fall,” but this garden fresh salad screams “fall” with perfectly harvest-ripened honey crisp apples. Pair this autumn spun salad with the salmon recipe above or with any of your favorite hot-off-the-grill meats.

- If you do not have access to an Oil and Vinegar store to purchase a nice vinegar, just dress the salad with my balsamic dressing recipe.
