Grilled Salmon and Asparagus with Honey-Mustard sauce and a Red Chile Mustard Vinaigrette



Well Abby, I don't even think I am going to be able to top this meal. It is truly delicious, not only because it has grilled salmon AND grilled asparagus, but the two sauces take it to a whole new level. The honey-mustard sauce is the perfect complement to the salmon and the red chile mustard vinaigrette could be used on any cooked vegetables or salads. Its a really easy meal to make and you can mix the sauces while the salmon and asparagus cook!

Ingredients:
  1. Salmon Fillet (any size)
  2. Asparagus
  3. Honey

  9. Red Wine Vinegar
  10. Olive Oil

Salmon:

  • Coat the salmon in canola oil
  • season with salt and pepper to taste
  • Cook the salmon skin side down first so that you can easily remove the skin if you want after it is finished cooking (cook time depends on the size of the fish. Mine took like 15 minutes?)




Asparagus:

  • I drizzled some extra virgin olive oil over the asparagus and then seasoned it with salt and pepper
  • Cook until tender and delicious :)
