Oven Roasted Salmon with Pink Peppercorn Sauce
Oven Roasted Salmon with Pink Peppercorn Sauce: This Mother’s Day, let’s give back to mom by cooking her a special meal. It’s simple and elegant, just how mom likes it!
Mother’s Day
When I think of my mom, three words come to mind: Tender, Wise, and Selfless.
Over the years my mother has listened with endless patience, offered insightful counsel, held her tongue when I didn’t take her advice, and given of herself more freely than any person I’ve ever known.
She taught me the delicate balance of give-and-take in relationships. She taught me to hold my personal character with the utmost importance.
I will never forget watching her help those less fortunate, even when our family resources were low. Or watching her stand her ground to protect our family when she felt our values were under attack. She is a tribute to motherhood; I’m so very blessed to have her.
I only hope one day my children will think of me the way I revere my mother.
Mother’s Day shouldn’t be the only day we celebrate our mothers, but it is a wonderful reminder to stop and recollect the countless lessons they’ve taught us. Mom’s have a way of speaking into our lives like no ones else.
A Meal for Mom
For 18 years, KitchenAid has supported the Susan G. Komen for the Cure with their Cook for the Cure Project by making donations off every pink item sold, and inspiring us to join the fight against breast cancer, for our moms, and for us all.
This year, the Cook for Your Mom Campaign encourages us to skip the crowded restaurants and make mom a home-cooked meal, like she’s been doing for us all along.
Cooking for your mom shows her that she is worth more than the few bucks you’d spend taking her out to lunch; she is worth your time.
Oven Roasted Salmon
Salmon is one of my mom’s favorite foods, so this year I thought I’d make her roasted salmon with creamy horseradish and pink peppercorn sauce.
This Roasted Salmon with Pink Peppercorn Sauce is a delightful way to celebrate mom and is delightfully easy to make.
How to Bake Salmon
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the salmon fillets on the baking sheet and brush with olive oil. Salt and pepper liberally.
- Roast in the oven for approximately 12 minutes, until just barely cooked through.
Pink Peppercorn Sauce
The pink peppercorns, along with a nip of horseradish and fresh dill, provides a lovely burst of flavor over this rich, tender roasted salmon.
Place all the ingredients for the pink peppercorn topping in a blender, puree until smooth.
In 15 minutes you have a fresh and vibrant main course. Throw in a couple of mom’s favorite side dishes and you just might win the son/daughter of the year award! *wink*

I love that my Mom raised me to be a good moral person and never put up with anything. I turned out a better adult because of it.

i love that she believes in me
The fact that she loved me so much and unconditionally.
One thing I love about my mom, shes not a quitter, never has been and probably never will be. She amazingly raised 3 kids on her own without any help, sometimes even working 2 jobs, we never, never went without nor did we ever know that we were not the norm, she made our lives amazing! And then when we all grew up, she had the biggest challenge of her life, cancer and in true mom style she didnt quit, its amazing how you can be faced with such a disease and come up with a smile on your face, MOM I love you!!
love how kind she is
