Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F.

  3. Spread Dijon mustard over the fillets and sprinkle salmon with the Herbes de Provence.

If you do not have Herbes de Provence, try Italian seasoning, dried thyme or basil, or even paprika. Mix it up even more by using artichoke hearts instead of the capers or olives.
