Directions
Children's salmon and glaze: Adults' salmon and glaze: Vegetable Medley:1. Combine childrens glaze ingredients together and pour over their salmon fillets. Combine the adults glaze ingredients together, reserving the dill, and pour over the remaining salmon. Set aside for 30 minutes.
2. Preheat oven to 450 F. Arrange fish fillets in 2 small, lightly greased baking pans and sprinkle lightly with salt & pepper. Bake for about 12-14 minutes, or until salmon is lightly browned on top and flakes easily with a fork.
3. During the last 5 minutes of cooking the salmon, prepare vegetable medley. Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add vegetables and saut for 5 minutes, or until crisp-tender. Stir in mint and season to taste with salt and pepper. Sprinkle adults salmon with reserved dill, and serve fish with vegetables.
Tip: Asparagus spears or green beans could be substituted for the snap peas. Rice or orzo would make a nice accompaniment to the fish.
