Very nice, simple, delicately flavored salmon. I like the idea from one of the reviewers to simmer the remaining marinade and use it as a glaze. This is healthy and easily done on a busy week-night. Thanks for posting.

This is wonderful, love the flavours. I didnt turn the fillet as it cooked through fine on the one side. Thanks for sharing.

Was surprised at how well the tast of the mustard & maple syrup came together in this dish! I guess I'm ready to try new things like this! I'm a salmon lover, so new ways of putting it all together are most appreciated! Many thanks for posting this recipe ~ it's one I'll be making again & again!
