Ingredients

  • 1 lb. wild salmon fillets
  • 1 tsp. honey
  • 1 tsp. whole-grain mustard
  • Pinch of salt
  • 3 Tbsp. 1 oz. cashews

Instructions

  • Turn the broiler on high. Salmon should be placed skin side down on a baking sheet lined with foil.
  • Combine salt, mustard, and honey in a small bowl. Apply the mixture to the fish evenly.
  • Crush cashews with the back of a wooden spoon or the side of a chef's knife. Toss on top of the fish.
  • Depending on your broiler and the thickness of the fish, it may take 5–10 minutes to broil salmon until the thickest section readily flakes with a fork.
