Pair salmon and Buzz Savories Honey Mustard and the combination wins in two ways. First, the honey mustard sauce compliments the subtle flavors of the salmon fillet, and second, the mustard retains moisture in the fillet as it cooks. The recipe comes together with ease and a moist fillet with optimum flavor is the result every time.
I eat salmon almost any way it comes to my plate – grilled, roasted, poached, fried in a croquette, and even canned salmon served cold in a salad. I appreciate the health benefits, the color and moist, tender chew although I was often disappointed with salmon’s bland flavor. Then I met a wonderful recipe that brings happiness to every taste bud on my palate.
The recipe – Honey Mustard Salmon in Foil – checks all my criteria for a superb main course: flavor I can taste and then want to taste again, moist, fail-safe cooking process, easy clean-up and also simple to make and serve for any number of guests.
I’m impressed and a little in love with Buzz Savories Honey Mustard Salmon in Foil. I keep a jar of Buzz Savories Honey Mustard handy for times when a salmon fillet or a salmon steak comes knocking.

How To Prepare:
To Make Honey Mustard Salmon in Foil
Heat oven to 325 Degrees or heat a grill to medium heat.
Whisk all Honey Mustard Sauce ingredients together for the Honey Mustard Sauce.
Line a large baking sheet with with a large sheet of aluminum foil. Mist the foil with cooking spray, then lay out the salmon in the middle of the foil.
Spoon the Buzz Savories Honey Mustard sauce on top of the salmon, and spread it evenly so that it covers the top of the salmon.
Fold the sides of the aluminum foil up and over the top of the salmon until it is completely enclosed. (If your sheet of foil is not large enough, place a second sheet of foil on top and fold the edges so that it forms a sealed packet.)
Bake for 14-15 minutes, or until the salmon is almost completely cooked through. (Cooking times will vary on the thickness of your salmon.) Remove the salmon from the oven and carefully open and pull back the aluminum foil so that the top of the fish is completely exposed. (Be careful, hot steam will be released!) Change the oven setting to broil, then return the salmon to the oven and broil for 2-3 minutes (watch closely to be sure the sauce does not burn).
To Cook on the Grill
Carefully transfer the packet of salmon to the grill, and grill for 12-14 minutes until the salmon is almost completely cooked through (Check more often if the salmon you are grilling is thinner). Carefully open and pull back the foil so that the top of the fish is completely exposed. Continue cooking for 3-5 minutes, until the fish is cooked through.
Remove salmon from the oven or the grill. Sprinkle the top of the salmon evenly with parsley, and serve immediately.
