BROILED SALMON WITH HERB MUSTARD GLAZE
Fast meal. Divine taste. This recipe is from Giada's Everyday Italian on Food Network. My husband loves salmon and thought this was perfect. The kitchen smelled wonderful while it was cooking. Worthy of company or to treat yourself with little effort. I did substitute dill for the rosemary. I served it with gruyere potato gratin and sugar snap peas.

BROILED SALMON AND ASPARAGUS WITH HERBS
Many people fear the broiler because they don't know how to use it, or they're worried they'll overdo it and end up with a scorched dinner. But when used properly, it's a useful tool ideal for crisping chicken skin, charring vegetables and melting cheese. Broiling is also a great method for perfectly cooking salmon: It yields a deeply browned crust and a tender center that isn't overcooked. All broilers are different, and knowing the strength of yours and being aware of any uneven "hot spots" help maximize the efficiency of it. (As your dish cooks, look to see if it's cooking evenly across the surface, which will tell you if you need to move things around.) In this recipe, soy-and-mustard-coated salmon and asparagus cook under the broiler, and are topped with an herb salad for a hit of brightness, freshness and acidity.

Steps:
- In a medium serving bowl, toss together the herbs, scallions, red-pepper flakes, lemon juice and 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Season with more lemon or oil as needed until the leaves look glossy. Set aside.
- Heat the broiler with a rack 6 inches from the heat source.
- In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce and mustard until smooth. Add the asparagus to a large sheet pan, toss with the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil, then season well with salt and pepper. Move the asparagus to the sides, and place the salmon skin side down in the center. Season the salmon with salt and pepper, brush the tops and sides with the soy mixture, then toss the asparagus in the rest of the soy mixture. (Use a paper towel to wipe off excess soy on the sheet pan, as it will smoke.)
- Broil until the salmon is opaque with a deep brown crust, about 6 to 8 minutes for medium rare, and 8 to 10 minutes for medium, depending on the strength of your broiler and the thickness of the salmon. (Reduce cooking time by 1 to 2 minutes for thinner fillets.) If it looks like it's browning too quickly or smoking excessively, move to a lower rack to finish cooking. Top the salmon and asparagus with the herb salad or serve on the side with a final round of pepper.
BROILED SALMON WITH MUSTARD AND LEMON
In this simple salmon recipe, a quick stint under the broiler transforms smooth Dijon mustard into a savory, caramelized crust, and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice adds just the right brightness and tang to the rich, sweet fish. Covering the baking pan with a protective layer of aluminum foil helps with the cleanup, meaning you can cook dinner and wash up in under 30 minutes.

Steps:
- Position one oven rack 6 inches from the broiler heat source then heat the broiler. Season the salmon fillets all over with ½ teaspoon salt and a couple of grinds of pepper and place them on an aluminum foil-lined sheet pan, skin side down.
- In a small bowl, whisk the oil and mustard until well mixed. Brush the tops and sides of the salmon with this mustard mixture.
- Broil until the salmon is opaque with a deep brown crust, about 6 to 8 minutes for medium-rare. (The center of the fillets will be dark pink, if you pierce one with a paring knife and take a look.) If your fillets are thinner, reduce cooking time by 1 to 2 minutes. If you prefer more well-done fish, add 1 or 2 minutes to the cooking time.
- Squeeze a lemon wedge all over the cooked salmon fillets, then serve salmon with more lemon wedges on the side.

Tips:
- Choose the Right Salmon: Select a fresh, firm salmon fillet with vibrant color and no fishy smell.
- Proper Thawing: If using frozen salmon, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight or under cold running water for 30 minutes.

- Season Generously: Season the salmon with salt, pepper, and herbs like thyme, rosemary, or dill to enhance its flavor.
- Make a Flavorful Glaze: Create a flavorful glaze using ingredients like Dijon mustard, honey, lemon juice, and herbs. This glaze will add a delicious crust to the salmon.
- Broil at High Heat: Broil the salmon on high heat for a short time to achieve a crispy skin and tender, juicy flesh.
- Watch for Doneness: Keep an eye on the salmon while broiling. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 155°F (68°C) for medium.
- Garnish and Serve: After broiling, garnish the salmon with fresh herbs, lemon wedges, or a sprinkle of flaky sea salt. Serve immediately with your favorite sides.
