In a small mixing bowl, whisk together Creole mustard, honey, soy sauce, grated ginger, minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Rinse and pat dry the salmon fillets with paper towels. Place them skin-side down on a plate or sheet pan.
Brush the glaze generously over the salmon fillets, ensuring an even coating. Let the salmon marinate for 10 minutes while you preheat the grill.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (around 400°F). Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Place the salmon fillets skin-side down directly on the grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, basting occasionally with the remaining glaze, until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the salmon from the grill and transfer to a serving platter. Garnish with chopped green onions and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
Enjoy your Grilled Creole Mustard Ginger Glazed Salmon with your favorite sides!
