Apricot-Glazed Salmon Fillets

Preheat your oven to the desired temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 175 degrees Celsius. To make things easier, cover your baking sheet with a thin layer of aluminum foil for effortless cleanup.

In a small bowl, mix together the sweet and tangy flavors of apricot preserves and mustard until you get a smooth and harmonious blend.

Arrange the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet in an orderly fashion. Gently brush half of the apricot-mustard mixture evenly onto the top surface of each fillet.

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven, positioning it on the top rack for optimal heat distribution. Allow the salmon to cook for 16 minutes, or until it reaches a tender and flaky texture.

After the initial 16 minutes of cooking, remove the baking sheet from the oven and brush the remaining half of the apricot-mustard mixture over the top surface of each fillet. Continue to bake for an additional 2 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.

Once the salmon is cooked to perfection, remove it from the oven and serve hot.
