Lemon Salmon Recipe - A Healthy Meal Option | Salmon Recipes

This lemon salmon recipe will be a sure bet to please your seafood loving crowd! Choose farm raised or wild caught fresh salmon and there is no need to remove the skin before baking. The thickness of the fish should be as even a possible to ensure even cooking.

Lemon Salmon Recipe:

-- 2 large salmon fillets (skin side placed down)
-- lemon juice (to taste) - 2 to 3 tablespoons fresh squeezed
-- 1/2 cup dijon mustard
-- 1/4 to 1/2 cup honey (to taste)
-- walnuts or pecans (1/2 to 3/4 cups chopped)

Place the salmon filets in a shallow baking dish sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Squeeze the fresh lemon juice onto the fillets; mix the dijon mustard and honey in a separate bowl and blend thoroughly. Save some of the mixture to serve at the table first (if desired); then spoon the remaining sauce over the salmon. Sprinkle chopped walnuts or pecans over the fish. Bake at 350 (on middle rack) for 15 to 20 minutes or until the salmon separates easily with a fork. It will flake apart easily and still be moist. Do not over cook.

Salmon is a healthy meal option and this lemon salmon recipe packs additional health benefits. Salmon (as well as other fatty fish) contains omega 3 fatty acids. When eaten 1 to 3 times a week, omega 3's may help prevent heart disease. Walnuts (unlike other nuts), contain high amounts of polyunsaturated fatty acids and ALA, a plant based omega 3 fatty acid. Honey is a natural sweetening agent which provides more intense flavors than sugar in recipes.

The addition of omega 3's and ALA's to the diet are believed to have heart protection benefits as well as prevent the onset or delay the progression of age related diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.
