Lemony Grilled Salmon Fillets with Dill Sauce Recipe

 

Lemony Grilled Salmon Fillets with Dill Sauce

2 medium lemons

4 salmon fillets (6 oz. each)

Lemony-Dill Sauce:           1 ½ tsp. cornstarch

½ cup water

1/3 cup lemon juice

4 tsp. butter

3 lemon slices, quartered

1 Tbsp. snipped fresh dill

¼ tsp. salt

1/8 tsp. dried chervil

Dash cayenne pepper

 

Trim both ends from each lemons; cut lemons into thick slices.  Moisten a paper towel with cooking oil; using long-handled tongs, lightly coat the grill rack.  Grill salmon and lemon slices, covered, over high heat or broil 3-4 inch from the heat for 3-5 minutes on each side or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and lemons are lightly browned.

For sauce:  In a small saucepan, combine the cornstarch, water and lemon juice; add butter.  Cook and stir over medium heat, until thickened and bubbly.  Remove from the heat; stir in quartered lemon slices and seasonings.  Serve with salmon and grilled lemon slices.         4 servings (3/4 cup sauce)
