Baked Dijon Salmon

You all know I'm not a big fan of salmon.  Or mustard.  But I must say this was pretty good.  

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup butter, melted
• 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1 1/2 tablespoons honey
• 1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
• 1/4 cup very finely chopped pecans
• 4 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
• 4 (4 ounce) fillets salmon
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1 lemon, for garnish

Instructions

1. Do NOT preheat oven.
2. In a small bowl, stir together butter, mustard, and honey. Set aside. In another bowl, mix together bread crumbs, pecans, and parsley.
3. Brush each salmon fillet lightly with honey mustard mixture. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Next, sprinkle the tops of the fillets with the bread crumb mixture.
4. Put the salmon on a cookie sheet and put in a COLD oven.  Heat oven to 400 and put cookie sheet in.  Bake for 25 minutes.  Unless salmon is really thick, it should come out perfect.  (This is something I learned from Pioneer Woman.  And she never usually leads us astray!)
