I cut this recipe in half for just the 2 of us &, taking the cue from other reviewers, I jacked up the amount of mustard! Also seasoned it with lemon pepper instead of the usual S&P! We eat salmon 4-5 times a month around here, & this is a wonderful addition to what I've been making! Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Tagged & made in Please Review My Recipe]

For starters, I used frozen tilapia instead of salmon, and didn't let it marinade because they were thin filets...but, ohmigosh, this had the best taste I've ever had for fish. With the frozen fish, I cooked it for 25 minutes, and by that time, the syrup had all melded together, and tasted great on the spinach leaves. Since I need to add more fish to my diet, this is defintely a keeper for me...and it was quick enough that it will make a good lunch, too.
