How to Make Baked Salmon With Mustard Dill Sauce
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, and 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
- Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste. Mix thoroughly.
- Let the sauce sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet with olive oil or cooking spray.
- Place salmon fillets, skin-side down, on the prepared baking sheet.
- Sprinkle the salmon with 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Spread 1/3 cup of the mustard dill sauce evenly over the salmon fillets.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
- Serve immediately, drizzled with the remaining sauce. Garnish with fresh dill sprigs, if desired.
