Honey-Dijon & Pecan Crusted Salmon with Cranberries
Dijon mustard, chopped pecans, lemon, fresh thyme & cranberries—what’s not to love?! This recipe will have you singing the song of Fall with all of its comforting, sweet Autumn goodness.
I can’t believe it’s been as long as it has been since we’ve eaten salmon! We used to eat it at least once, if not twice, every week. Before blogging, my go-to was salmon Caesar salad, which is still a favorite of mine. But, it’s Fall, y’all, and I wanted to change things up a bit.
This Dijon-Pecan Crusted Salmon is EVERYTHING!! The pecan and panko crust gives the salmon the perfect amount of crunch while providing even more of a punch when it comes to protein (it has a TON of protein). By the time you had the honey, lemon juice, fresh thyme leaves and a spoonful of cranberries on the top, you’ll know how special this recipe is, and I have no doubt you’ll be making this recipe more than once this Fall.
Best ways to eat this salmon:
Serve it with a side of steamed spinach or roasted sweet potatoes.
Toss it on top of a bed of salad greens with some chopped apples, goat cheese and balsamic vinaigrette.
