Pecan Crusted Salmon

I'm not a fan of salmon. So I dressed it up. This I very much enjoyed.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease cookie sheet with olive oil.

Serve with side salad. Mine was Italian blend greens with dried cherries, onion straws, kalamata olives, feta and a blush wine vinaigrette.


Place three salmon filets on cookie sheet. In small bowl, mix equal parts (I used about two teaspoons):
- extra virgin olive oil
- local raw honey 
- lemon juice
- Dijon mustard

Brush filets liberally with half the sauce.

In a second bowl, mix:
- about 1 cup finely ground pecans
- garlic pepper
- about 1 tablespoon parsley 
- about 1 teaspoon paprika

Coat the top of the filets and drizzle remaining sauce on top. Bake about 20 minutes.
