 Mustard and Brown Sugar Salmon

Ingredients

4 salmon fillets, about 1 1/2 lb (skin removed; thawed)
1/2 cup light mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Italian herb seasoning paste
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons spicy brown mustard
1/4 teaspoon curry powder
olive oil (or regular) cooking spray

Prep

– Preheat grill.
– Check fish for bones.

Steps

1. Combine mayonnaise and seasoning paste; chill until ready to serve.
2. Combine sugar, mustard, and curry powder. Coat both sides of salmon with cooking spray (wash hands). Place salmon on grill; grill 2-3 minutes without turning.
3. Turn salmon; then brush with mustard mixture. Close lid; grill 2-3 more minutes or until flesh is opaque and separates easily. Serve herb mayonnaise over salmon.

 Herbed Rice

Ingredients

2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
2 (10-oz) bags frozen pre-cooked brown rice
1 tablespoon Italian herb seasoning paste
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Steps

1. Preheat large sauté pan on medium-high 2-3 minutes. Chop parsley.
2. Combine rice, seasoning paste, salt, and pepper in pan; cook and stir 3-4 minutes or until thoroughly heated.
3. Stir in parsley; cover and reduce heat to lowest setting until ready to serve.

Aprons Advice

– Complete your meal with fresh salad blend, dinner rolls, and enjoy fresh fruit for dessert.
– Lay fish, skin side down, over an inverted bowl; the curve lifts the bones. Use fingertips to feel for bones that may not be visible.
– Don’t want to grill? You can prepare the salmon in a large sauté pan on medium-high heat instead; cook time will be about the same.
