Growing up, my family always enjoyed fresh fish, especially salmon. We would often go fishing together, and my dad would bring home a fresh catch. My mom's favorite way to prepare salmon was always baked with a simple seasoning of salt and pepper. I decided to put my own spin on this classic recipe by adding a tangy lemon dill sauce.

4 salmon fillets

2 tbsp dijon mustard

Salt and pepper to taste

Cooking Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 375°F.
In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, dijon mustard, honey, lemon juice, and dill.
Place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet and season with salt and pepper.
Spoon the lemon dill sauce over the salmon fillets, making sure they are fully coated.
Bake the salmon for 12-15 minutes or until cooked through.
Serve hot with additional lemon slices and dill sprigs for garnish.
