A simple and delicious salmon that my husband requested over his mother's! From the Modern Girl's Guide to Life. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, plus |
fresh dill sprig (to garnish, buy one bunch from the store) |
4 tablespoons dijon mustard |
2 tablespoons honey |
3/4 cup mayonnaise (lower fat types okay, too.) |
1/4 cup sour cream (non-fat okay) |
1 lemon, cut into 6 wedges |
6 (6 ounce) salmon fillets (1-inch thick) |
nonstick cooking spray |
Directions:
1. Preheat the broiler in your oven.
2. In a small bowl, combinete chopped dill, mustard and honey.
3. Place 2 tablespoons of the mixture in a smaller dish and reserve the sauce for basting the salmon later.
4. Mix the mayonnaise and sour cream with the remaining dill mixture.
5. Cover and chill in the refrigerator until serving time.
6. Spray the skin side of the salmon with the nonstick cooking spray.
7. Place the salmon skin side up, in a broiler pan but DO NOT SPREAD IT WITH THE MUSTARD MIXTURE!
8. I made this messy mistake once, but only once.
9. Broil the salmon 4-6 inches from the heat for about 5 minutes.
10. Turn the fillets over, brush them with the dill-mustard-honey sauce (not the creamy sauce you put in the refrigerator), and broil for 5 more minutes.
11. You'll know it's done wen the fish flakes easily with a fork.
12. Serve the salmon on plate with a dollop of the refrigeratied sour crem and dill sauce and garnish with sprigs of fresh dill.
13. Put a lemon wedgeon the plate and serve.
