I served this with spaghetti. I tossed the hot, drained noodles with enough of the sauce to coat, plated the spaghetti, topped with the salmon and dressed the salmon with another dollop of the sauce, and garnished with a few more capers.

Time 45m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 (2 pound) salmon fillet
1 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning
1 teaspoon onion salt
1 small onion, sliced and separated into rings
6 slices lemon
¼ cup butter, cut into small chunks
⅓ cup sour cream
⅓ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon capers
1 tablespoon finely chopped onion
1 tablespoon caper brine
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon prepared horseradish
¾ teaspoon dried dill weed
¼ teaspoon garlic salt
ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil; grease the foil lightly.

Tips:

  • Select the freshest salmon possible: Look for fillets that are firm and have a bright, vibrant color. Avoid any fish that has a slimy or fishy odor.
  • Pat the salmon dry before cooking: This will help to prevent the fish from sticking to the pan and will also result in a crispier skin.
  • Use a well-seasoned cast iron or stainless steel skillet: This will help to create a nice sear on the fish and will also prevent it from sticking.
  • Heat the skillet over medium-high heat before adding the salmon: This will help to create a nice sear on the fish.
  • Cook the salmon for 3-4 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through: The fish is cooked through when it flakes easily with a fork.
  • Serve the salmon immediately with your favorite sides: Some popular sides include roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad.

Conclusion:

Pan-seared salmon with dill sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the dill sauce adds a light and flavorful touch. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
