I’m constantly on the look out for simple, yet flavorfulmeals. Because despite my best efforts, there are nights where I have to worklate, or my husband does, or where I’m just too beat to spend much time on ameal. Those are the nights where we end up ordering something unhealthy likeChinese or pizza, unless I have a simple, quick meal on hand to make. Thissalmon recipe that I found on Drizzle and Drip fits the bill perfectly. It’svery quick and easy to make, with ingredients that for the most part you wouldgenerally have on hand, and best of all—it packs a lot of fresh, deliciousflavors. Lemon and dill with a perfectly cooked salmon are the perfectcomplements to each other.

2-4 salmon filetsolive oil½ cup sour cream1 tbsp mayonnaise 1 ½ tbsp finely chopped dill juice of 1/4 of a lemonground black pepper and salt to taste
The original recipe calls for crème fraiche, but I thinksour cream worked well as a substitute, and if you wanted to make it healthier,I don’t think a low-fat sour cream would hurt it. You could also cut themayonnaise entirely, in my opinion. I did cut the recipe down some because itmade way too much for just two people. All you really need is a tablespoon ortwo at most for each fillet.
Simply mix together the sour cream, mayo, dill, lemon juiceand salt and pepper in a small dish and set it aside. Rub salmon lightly witholive oil and season with salt and pepper. Pan fry it over medium high heat,starting with the skin side down for 2 minutes. Flip it over for 3 minutes,then back on the other side for the last two minutes. If you like your salmoncooked completely through (shame on you!) you might have to cook it longer.
After that, just serve with a dollop of dressing on top. Itis bright and lemony with lots of dill flavor to complement the unfussy salmon.And it’s so easy!
