Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. Place 4 salmon fillets on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Rub each fillet with 1 tbsp olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and top with 1/4 cup minced lemon zest.
  2. Step 2: In a small bowl, combine 3 tbsp fresh dill, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp Dijon mustard, 1 tbsp all-purpose flour, and 1/4 cup chicken stock. Whisk until smooth.
  3. Step 3: Spoon sauce evenly over salmon fillets. Bake for 12-14 minutes until salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  4. Step 4: Squeeze 1/2 lemon over the top and garnish with additional dill. Serve immediately with steamed asparagus or roasted potatoes.
