 Need some inspiration for dinner this week?  This is an elegant dinner you'll make over and over.  Perfect when cooking for one, two, or for company.  Ina's mustard-roasted fish has become one of our favorites.  The best part is that it is ready in 15 minutes or less!!  The recipe suggests red snapper, but here I have used salmon.

Ingredients:
4 (8-ounce) fish fillets such as red snapper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 ounces creme fraiche
4 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons minced shallots
2 teaspoons drained capers
 Directions:
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

Line a sheet pan with parchment paper. (You can also use an ovenproof baking dish.) Place the fish fillets skin side down on the sheet pan. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper.

Combine the creme fraiche,  mustard, shallots, capers, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Spoon the sauce evenly over the fish fillets, making sure the fish is completely covered. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish, until it's barely done. (The fish will flake easily at the thickest part when it's done.) Be sure not to overcook it! Serve hot or at room temperature with the sauce from the pan spooned over the top.  Bon Appétit!!
