Salmon with Creamy Dill Sauce

Here's a great and really easy recipe you can make in your oven.  The sour cream sauce is subtly seasoned with dill and horseradish which doesn't overwhelm the salmon.  And onions!  

I served this with those wonderful green beans and mushrooms (see 3-7-13 post) and a baked red potato.

SALMON WITH CREAMY DILL SAUCE (6 servings)

2 pound salmon fillet
1 to 1 1/2 tsp lemon-pepper seasoning
1 tsp onion salt
1 small sweet onion, sliced and separated into rings
6 lemon slices
1/4 cup butter, cubed

Dill Sauce:
1/3 cup sour cream
1/3 cup mayo
1 Tbsp finely chopped onion
1 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp prepared horseradish
3/4 tsp dill weed
1/4 tsp garlic salt
Pepper to taste

Line a 15"x10"x1" baking pan with heavy-duty foil; grease lightly.  Place salmon skin side down on foil.  Sprinkle with lemon-pepper and onion salt.  Top with onion and lemon.  Dot with butter.  Fold foil around salmon; seal tightly.

Bake at 350F for 20 minutes.  Open foil carefully, allowing steam to escape.  Broil 4-6" from the heat for 8-12 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

Combine the sauce ingredients until smooth.   Serve with salmon.
