Mustard-Crusted Salmon

 

Ingredients

• 4 to 5 pieces (about 1/2 lb. each) salmon fillet
• 1/4 cup finely minced garlic
• 3 tablespoons butter or margarine
• 3/4 cup whole-grain Dijon mustard
• 1/2 cup dry white wine
• Lemon wedges

 

Rinse fish; pat dry. Place pieces, skin down, on an oiled broiler pan. In 6- to 8-inch frying pan, stir garlic in butter over medium heat until soft, about 3 minutes. Spoon butter from garlic and drizzle over salmon fillets; reserve garlic in pan. Broil salmon 2 to 3 inches from heat for 2 minutes. Meanwhile, mix mustard and wine with sauteed garlic. Remove pan from oven. Spoon mustard mixture evenly over fillets. Return to oven; broil until crust is golden brown and fish is barely opaque in thickest part (cut to test), 4 to 6 minutes.
