Delicious salmon fillet, perfect as an appetizer or main course.
Ingredients:
  • 4 cups water
  • 3 or 4 slices lemon, cut in half
  • 3 or 4 slices onion, cut in half
  • 1/4 cup small sprigs parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper
  • 1 salmon fillet (1 lb)
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon olive or vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped red onion
  • 2 teaspoons capers
  • 1 teaspoon grated lemon peel
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Cocktail bread slices or crackers, if desired
Instructions:
  • In a large skillet, bring water, lemon slices, onion slices, parsley sprigs, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and pepper to a boil. Let it boil for 3 minutes. Lower the heat to medium-low and gently add the salmon, skin side down. Cover and cook for 5 to 6 minutes or until the salmon easily flakes with a fork. Remove the salmon from the skillet and let it cool. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours but no more than 24 hours. Discard the liquid in the skillet.
  • Combine lemon juice, honey, mustard, and oil in one bowl, and mix until well blended. In a separate bowl, combine parsley, red onion, capers, and lemon peel.
  • Serve by delicately peeling skin off salmon and placing it on a serving plate. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon of salt, drizzle honey-mustard sauce over salmon, and top with parsley mixture. Accompany with bread slices.
