(1) trader joes frozen sockeye salmon steaks - just put them in the fridge 24 hours ahead of time so they are defrosted when you want to cook
(2) preheat oven to 400F
(3) slather salmon steaks in Maille mustard (any dijon works well -- about 10kcal per tsp)
(4) when oven is hot, put salmon in. Turn after 5 minutes. Turn back after 5 minutes and check for "done-ness". If the salmon is a rich pink on the inside and flakes with your fork, you're good to go. If it needs a bit more time or you like your salmon more cooked, give it an extra 3-5 minutes.

EAT!

50g of protein, 20g of fat (lots of healthy omega-3s), less than 700g sodium (most form the mustard)

*15 minutes start to finish!*

    I have had this before at a really nice restaurant inChicago and it was delicious. I kind of wondered also, but fantastic.

    Ok I've never thought of having Dijon mustard with salmon. Will have to try.

    eek actually I meant "1/2 lb" - I was trying to describe the calories in one-fillet serving. Yikes.

    Honey mustard is great with salmon, too. Thanks for the post!
