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)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together the Dijon mustard, honey, olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 3

Place the fish fillets on the prepared baking sheet, skin-side down if applicable.

Step 4

Using a spoon or brush, generously coat each fish fillet with the mustard glaze, making sure the glaze covers the top and sides evenly.

Step 5

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).

Step 6

Remove the fish from the oven and let it rest for 2 minutes before serving.

Step 7

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve with optional lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of brightness.

Step 8

Enjoy your delicious mustard-glazed fish with a side of steamed vegetables, roasted potatoes, or a fresh green salad!
