Grilled Salmon With a Creamy 'tartar' Sauce image

This is a delicious, easy summer salmon dish that gives you a lot of bang for your bucks. We liked it grilled, but you could also broil it in the oven, cook it in a non-stick skillet, or even nuke it! The creamy (faux) 'tartar' sauce is absolutely yummy and really complements the rich, flaky salmon. This dish is great either hot or cold.

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/3 cup creme fraiche
1 tablespoon finely minced gherkins or 1 tablespoon cornichon
1 tablespoon finely minced green onion
1 1/2 teaspoons finely minced fresh dill
1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon sweetened condensed milk
1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
salt and pepper, to taste
2 salmon fillets or 2 steaks
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 garlic clove, very finely minced
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano (I prefer the Mediterranean oregano)
salt and pepper, to taste
very finely-sliced green onion top

Steps:

  • For Creamy Tartar Sauce: Combine all ingredients together in a small bowl. Taste and adjust for salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • For Salmon: Mix olive oil, lemon juice, dijon mustard, garlic, oregano and salt and pepper to taste. Put salmon steaks in a zip-loc bag and add marinade, making sure that salmon is completely coated with marinade. Marinate in refrigerator for 1-2 hours before grilling.
  • To grill: Prepare coals or propane bbq to medium-hot. Remove salmon from marinade in zip-loc bag and grill 3-4 minutes per side, or until done. (Alternatively, you can cook the salmon in your favourite way.).
  • To serve: Center grilled salmon on plate and top with creamy 'tartar' sauce. Garnish with the very finely-sliced green onion tops sprinkled over the sauce.

This dish was a bit too fishy for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think it would be better with a different type of fish.

I'm not a fan of tartar sauce, but I loved this recipe. The sauce was light and flavorful, and it didn't overpower the salmon.
