Salmon with a Dill, Sour Cream, & Mustard Sauce

(And broccoli on the side. Can you tell what's been on sale lately? :P)

Ingredients:

2 salmon fillets
1/2 t. chili powder (I thought it added a nice kick)
Juice of 1 lime
Salt & pepper to taste

1 T. olive oil
3 T. onion, finely minced
2 cloves of garlic, finely minced
2 T. Dijon mustard
1/3 cup minced fresh dill
1 cup sour cream
Juice of 1 lime

Instructions:

Place the salmon on a plate and sprinkle with spices and lime juice. Cover and let sit for about an hour in the refrigerator.


Heat the olive oil in a small pan over medium heat. Sautee the onion and garlic until onion is translucent.

Add Dijon and dill and allow to cook for 2-3 minutes.


Add sour cream and lime juice. Stir together and allow to cook for a few minutes. Remove from heat and let it come to room temperature.


Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spread a small amount of oil over it.

Place marinated salmon onto the sheet. Pour 1/3 of the sauce over salmon. Bake for 20 minutes, or until salmon is opaque in the center.



I tossed the broccoli in garlic, salt, pepper, and olive oil and just placed it on the same sheet.

When done, use the rest of the sauce as you desire (I thought it was tasty on the broccoli, too!).
