    Directions

    1. Prepare a charcoal or gas grill with greased grill rack for direct cooking over medium-high heat.

    2. Combine mustard, soy sauce, honey, garlic, and chopped thyme in a small bowl; set aside.

    3. Lay lemon slices on grill rack; spread them out and overlap the slices. Pat salmon dry. Place salmon on top of lemon slices and brush with half of the mustard glaze.
