This lovely moist salmon topped with a mild and creamy dill sauce can be ready in minutes. And because it’s cooked in packets on the grill, cleanup is fast too, says Mary Relyea of Canastota, New York.

Moist Salmon with Dill Sauce Recipe

Prep/Total Time: 20 min.

Yield: 6 Servings

10 10 20

Ingredients

6 salmon fillets (4 ounces each)
1/2 teaspoon plus 2 tablespoons snipped fresh dill, divided
1/4 teaspoon pepper
4 teaspoons cornstarch
2/3 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
1/3 cup evaporated milk
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons lemon juice

Directions

Place each salmon fillet on a double thickness of heavy-duty foil (about 12 in. square). Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon dill and pepper. Fold foil around salmon and seal tightly.
Grill, covered, over high heat for 5-10 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
In a small saucepan, combine the cornstarch, broth, milk, mustard, lemon juice and remaining dill. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened.
Open foil packets carefully to allow steam to escape. Serve salmon with dill sauce. Yield: 6 servings.

I baked my foil packets in a 450 degree oven for 12 minutes. Very moist. The fresh dill sauce is really good.

YUM. Made the sauce with Tilapia, worked very well there too.
