Dill Salmon

Seafood doesn’t get any fresher than it is here in the Pacific Northwest. One of the things I love best about fish is that it cooks so fast. That makes all kinds of seafood a great choice when you’re in a time crunch for dinner.

Salmon is one of my favorite kinds of fish. It tastes great with nothing more than a spritz of fresh lemon juice and a sprinkling of salt. I went a little farther than that with this recipe, but not much. From start to finish, you can have this quick & easy recipe for dill salmon on the table in 15 minutes.

And it’s delicious, too!

Serve this with a nice spinach salad with vinegar and oil. (It’s pictured here with the Thanksgiving appetizers that I made for last week’s blog because I made all those recipes in one wild Sunday of cooking.)
