Pan-Seared Salmon with Dill Sauce

Instructions

1. 1

   Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper to your liking.

2. 2

   Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.

3. 3

   Once the oil is hot, add the salmon fillets skin-side down (if they have skin) and sear for about 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy.

4. 4

   Flip the salmon fillets and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the desired doneness is reached.

5. 5

   While the salmon is cooking, prepare the dill sauce by combining sour cream, chopped fresh dill, lemon zest, lemon juice, and minced garlic in a small bowl. Mix well until all ingredients are incorporated.

6. 6

   Remove the salmon from the skillet and let it rest for a couple of minutes.

7. 7

   Serve the salmon with a generous dollop of the dill sauce on top or on the side for dipping.
