Slow‐Roasted Salmon with Cilantro Mustard Glaze
Nutrition Fact:
Many people are concerned about mercury in the saltwater fish. Adding cilantro or parsley is a great way to eat fish. Because cilantro and parsley are heavy metal binders, they can bind the heavy metals and hall them out of your blood.

2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro or parsley

1 teaspoon mustard seeds
1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest
2 - 3 (4-ounce) wild-caught salmon fillets
Salt
Black pepper

Place the melted butter or avocado oil in a small mixing bowl. add salt, black pepper, cilantro, Dijon mustard, mustard seeds, and lemon zest. Blend thoroughly.
Spread the sauce mixture over the top of each salmon fillet. Then transfer to the baking sheet.
Place in the oven and roast for about 15-20 minutes until the fish is barely cooked and the top is glazed.
