Roasted Strawberry Salmon (Corrected Entry)

This dish is as beautiful as it is delicious! I came up with the recipe after a friend told me about a similar dish she had eaten in France. I have been making versions of it now for years, and it is always a big hit!

SERVINGS 6
COOK TIME 10 min
PREP TIME 10 min

Ingredients:

1 tbsp FRENCH'S® Honey Dijon Mustard

1.25 cup reduced sodium soy or Tamari sauce

2 tbsp fresh lemon juice

1/2 tsp ground black pepper

3 lb salmon filet (one 3 pound filet)

10.5 oz strawberry preserves (1 jar)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Combine the soy or Tamari sauce, lemon juice, French's Honey Dijon Mustard and pepper in a large shallow baking dish to make a marinade. Place the salmon filet in the marinade, skin side up, and set aside for 20 minutes. Remove the salmon from the marinade and place, skin side down, on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper (discard remaining marinade). Bake for approximately 30 minutes until the center of the fish is opaque, or to desired degree of doneness. Allow to stand 5 minutes, then cut into 6 equal portions and serve.
