Ingredients :
  • 4 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic , minced
  • 1 teaspoon flat parsley , minced
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon coarse Kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice

  2. In a small bowl, mash together the butter, garlic, parsley, mustard, salt, pepper, lemon juice and zest.

  3. Slather, best you can, all over salmon. Don’t worry about it being even, after it melts it will evenly distribute.
