This Grilled Dijon-Maple Salmon brings the perfect blend of tangy mustard and sweet maple syrup for a flavor-packed dish that’s both easy and elegant.

🥗 Ingredients:

• 4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons maple syrup
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh parsley, for garnish
• Lemon wedges, for serving

🍳 Instructions (Serves 4)

1️⃣ Prepare the Marinade:
🥄 In a small bowl, whisk together the Dijon mustard, maple syrup, olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper.

2️⃣ Marinate the Salmon:
🐟 Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or resealable bag. Pour the marinade over the fillets, making sure they are evenly coated. Refrigerate for 15–30 minutes.

3️⃣ Preheat the Grill:
🔥 Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Clean and oil the grates to prevent sticking.

4️⃣ Grill the Salmon:
🥩 Remove the salmon from the marinade and discard any leftover marinade. Place the salmon fillets on the grill, skin-side down. Grill for 4–5 minutes per side, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

5️⃣ Serve:
🍽️ Transfer the grilled salmon to a platter and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve with lemon wedges on the side for a zesty finish.
