Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
In a small bowl, whisk together maple syrup, Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, soy sauce, olive oil, and minced garlic.
Place salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper.
Spoon or brush the maple mustard sauce evenly over each fillet.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

For a more caramelized glaze, broil the salmon for the last 2 minutes.
You can marinate the salmon in the sauce for 30 minutes before baking for deeper flavor.
This recipe pairs well with roasted vegetables or a simple green salad.
