Ingredients

• 4 pieces (6 oz each) salmon fillets
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
• 2 teaspoons lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 minced garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon (or to taste) salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons (chopped, for garnish) fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium heat (about 375°F to 400°F) and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.

Step 2

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the honey, Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and brush both sides generously with the honey mustard mixture, reserving a small amount for brushing during grilling.

Step 4

Place the salmon fillets skin-side down (if they have skin) on the preheated grill. Close the lid and cook for 5-6 minutes.

Step 5

Carefully flip the salmon fillets using a wide spatula and brush with the reserved honey mustard mixture. Close the lid and continue grilling for another 5-6 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillets.

Step 6

Remove the salmon from the grill and let it rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.

Step 7

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately with your choice of sides, such as steamed vegetables, rice, or a fresh green salad.
