Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Salmon:
    • 4 (6 oz) salmon fillets
    • 2 tbsp olive oil (or avocado oil)
    • 1 tsp garlic powder
    • 1 tsp onion powder
    • Salt and pepper to taste
    • Lemon wedges (optional)
  • For the Dill Sauce:
    • 1/2 cup full-fat sour cream or Greek yogurt
    • 2 tbsp mayonnaise
    • 2 tbsp fresh dill, chopped (or 1 tsp dried dill)
    • 1 tbsp lemon juice
    • 1 clove garlic, minced
    • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
  2. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and rub it into the fillets.
  3. Season the salmon with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Add lemon wedges around the fillets if using.
  4. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  5. While the salmon bakes, prepare the dill sauce. In a small bowl, mix together sour cream, mayonnaise, dill, lemon juice, and garlic. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Serve the baked salmon with a generous spoonful of dill sauce on top. Garnish with extra dill or lemon slices, if desired.

Notes

  • Use fresh dill for the best flavor, but dried dill works in a pinch.
  • The dill sauce can be made ahead and stored in the fridge for up to 2 days.
  • Leftover salmon can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days and used in salads or wraps.
  • For extra flavor, broil the salmon for 1-2 minutes at the end of baking to crisp up the top.
