How to Make 5 Ingredient Salmon In A Mustard Honey Cream Sauce

1. **Prep the Salmon:** Remove salmon fillets from the refrigerator 15-20 minutes before cooking to allow them to come to room temperature.
2. **Prepare the Baking Sheet:** Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly grease with cooking spray or olive oil.
3. **Season the Salmon:** Place salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Season generously with salt and pepper.
4. **Make the Honey Mustard Sauce:** In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, whisk together 1/2 cup heavy cream, 2 tablespoons honey, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, and 1 teaspoon fresh dill.
5. **Simmer the Sauce:** Bring the sauce to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened.
6. **Cook the Salmon:** Broil salmon on the second shelf from the top for 8-15 minutes, or until cooked through (depending on thickness). Alternatively, bake at 400°F (200°C) for 12-18 minutes, or grill over medium heat for 4-6 minutes per side.
7. **Finish and Serve:** Stir in the fresh dill into the honey mustard sauce. Drizzle the sauce generously over the cooked salmon. Serve immediately with recipe #391590 and a side salad or your favorite green vegetable (baby peas are delicious!).
