Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces fish fillets (e.g., salmon, cod, or tilapia)
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
- 1 whole lemon wedges (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
In a small bowl, mix together the Dijon mustard, honey, olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Place the fish fillets on the prepared baking sheet, skin-side down if applicable.
Using a spoon or brush, generously coat each fish fillet with the mustard glaze, making sure the glaze covers the top and sides evenly.
Bake the fish in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and is cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
Remove the fish from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes before serving.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve with optional lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of brightness.
Enjoy your delicious mustard-glazed fish with a side of steamed vegetables, roasted potatoes, or a fresh green salad!
