Tarragon Dijon Baked Salmon w/ Cream Sauce

This salmon is baked, but you can cook it on your grill too. Try different flavors of mustard on the salmon for a new taste.



Oil
Fresh Salmon -Cut into single sized servings, rinse and pat dry
Tarragon Dijon
Dried Bread Crumbs
s/p
1-2 T. Melted Butter (optional)
Tarragon Dijon Cream

Put just enough oil into an oven proof pan to lightly cover the bottom. Heat the oil over medium-high heat.

Rub your mustard all over the non-skin sides of the salmon (top and sides). Your fingers work best for this.



Sprinkle bread crumbs over the fish in a light even layer.

Tarragon Dijon Mustard Cream Sauce

This sauce is light, fluffy and creamy in texture and still packs quite a punch with it's flavor. It's super easy to prepare and will impress your guests. The cream is gluten free and vegetarian. It can be served over any cooked potatoes, vegetables, fish or meat. I want to try it on fried oysters next!



1/2 cup Heavy Whipping Cream
spoonful White Balsamic Vinegar or Lemon Juice
2 spoonfuls (or to taste) Tarragon Dijon Mustard



Use an immersion or hand blender to whip the cream just until soft peaks form. Don't over whip the cream or you'll make butter. As soon as the cream forms soft mounds, it's done.



Add the vinegar.



Add the mustard.
