Grilled Salmon with Lemon Dill Sauce


(Salmon is an excellent source of Omega-3's).

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoon lemon juice

4 salmon filets, about 6 oz. each

Lemon Dill Sauce

1 tablespoon stone ground mustard

1 teaspoon dry mustard

3 teaspoons chopped fresh dill (or 1 teaspoon dried dill)

1/4 cup mayonnaise (sugar free, if possible)

2 tablespoons lemon juice



Combine olive oil and 1 tablespoon lemon juice in small container and set aside.

Rinse salmon with cool water. Pat dry with paper towels. Brush with lemon-olive oil mixture and grill or broil to desired doneness. Be sure to place flesh-side toward heat, skin-side away from heat to prevent curling. Turn after about 7 minutes and cook to desired doneness.

While salmon cooks, prepare mustard sauce by combining remaining ingredients in a small bowl.

Remove salmon to platter and serve with mustard sauce on the side.
