Description
This 5-ingredient low FODMAP walnut-crusted salmon recipe is an easy 20-minute main dish loaded with healthy omega-3 fatty acids. Pair this simple salmon with fluffy quinoa and a low FODMAP serving of roasted or steamed green beans.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 (4 to 6-ounce) salmon fillets
- 2 teaspoons packed brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons reduced-sodium soy sauce (or tamari)
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- ¼ cup chopped walnuts
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Arrange salmon fillets, skin side down, on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, whisk together brown sugar, soy sauce, and mustard. Brush the mixture evenly over the tops and sides of the salmon fillets.
- Gently press chopped walnuts onto the tops of the coated salmon fillets.
- Bake salmon for 4 to 6 minutes per ½-inch of thickness, or until done (flesh is opaque and separates easily with a fork). According to the FDA, salmon is considered done when a food thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 145°F or the flesh is opaque & separates easily with a fork.
- Remove salmon from the oven and cool for a couple of minutes. The walnuts will be hot. Serve warm.
