About This Recipe:
It is pretty rare when I am super impressed by my own cooking, but this lemon dill salmon happens to be one of those times. Not only does this recipe require almost no prep work and only 5 ingredients (excluding salt and pepper,) but it is so flavorful and dinner party appropriate. I like to serve this salmon with roasted baby potatoes and carrots. I just cut the potatoes and carrots, toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and roast at 450 degrees F for about 45 minutes.
Enjoy!
