This moist tender salmon is a savory treat draped with a smooth creamy dill sauce. "When my daughter served this tempting main dish for dinner, I was surprised to learn how easy the recipe is," says Janet Painter of Three Springs, Pennsylvania.

This was such a great recipe. The sauce paired with the salmon perfectly, and it just doesn't get any easier than this! Just 5 total ingredients, and ready in 20 minutes! In the future, I will probably lightly salt the salmon before baking, but that's just a personal preference. The recipe is great as is! Definitely recommended!

Very good. My sauce started to separate, so I might have heated it too much. ?

With only a few ingredients, this is a superior salmon recipe, just right for hot summer nights. My family gobbled it up.
