Salmon with Mustard Crust and Sauteed Spinach
- Nonstick cooking spray
- 1 small red onion, sliced very thin
- 1/3 cup Dijon mustard
- 1 small navel orange, peeled and cut into segments
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 4 salmon fillets (4 ounces each)
- 2 garlic cloves, sliced very thin
- 2 tablespoons real bacon bits, such as Hormel Real Bacon Bits
- 12 ounces baby spinach
- Preheat the broiler on low.
- Line a baking sheet with foil; spray it with cooking spray and set it aside.
- In a small bowl, mix the onion with the mustard.
- Add the orange segments and toss to combine thoroughly.
- Season the mixture generously with salt and pepper.
- Lay the salmon on the prepared baking sheet; season it with salt and pepper.
- Divide the onion mixture among the 4 fillets, spreading it out to cover the surface of the fish completely.
- Broil the salmon until the onion mixture is almost charred and the salmon is just cooked through, about 8 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat a large nonstick saute pan over medium-high heat.
- When the pan is hot, spray it with cooking spray.
- Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until it is very fragrant and just beginning to brown, about 1 minute.
- Then add the bacon bits and spinach, and season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Cover the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until the spinach wilts, about 3 minutes.
- When the spinach is cooked, remove it from the pan, draining off as much liquid as possible, and arrange it on a serving platter.
- Place the salmon fillets on top of the spinach, and serve.
