Cactus Club’s Dijon Salmon (Copycat Recipe!)

2 Mins read

For someone who does A LOT of recipe recreations, this is probably one of the ones I remake the most! 

This salmon is so easy and simple and it cooks up so quickly that it can be made for a weekday dinner! I’ve gotten many comments that this sauce is creamier and more delicious so I would highly recommend you give this a try!

How To Serve This Grilled Dijon Salmon

I served this like the Cactus Club with Asparagus and Mashed Potatoes, but this is such a great dish, I also love serving it with Bok Choy and some creamy Udon pasta!

Grilled Dijon Salmon Tips 

Use half the amount of soy sauce to start if you don’t like it salty! This is supposed to be paired with the salmon that is not salty but if you want to use this sauce for other things I suggest using half especially if you like to season your salmon before hand.

The Cactus Club cooks this on the grill but a pan fry or air fry would be great too!

Add the dill JUST before taking it off the grill if you don’t like it to burn!
