Very good! I LOVE the dill sauce! I will definitely make again and again! Thanks for sharing!
Joshua Cole
Very easy to do and worth every bite. I substituted the dijon mustard with yellowbird habanero sauce. YUMMMMMM, Plus I mixed in greek yogurt with the mayonaisse topping mixture.
Tracey Hernandez
Delicious and easy! I didn’t have fresh dill but I will make sure to use it next time. I did add lemon juice before serving as I always do with salmon or any other fish for that matter.
Jill Allen
I was not a fan of this recipe. I made it exactly and no one else in the house would eat it after 1 bite. It mostly tasted of sweet mayo, completely overpowered the fish. I will not make this again.
Karen Simon
Had this for fish Friday and the entire family loved it!
James Olson
Great Recipe! Easy to make sauce that went perfect with the salmon. Only change I made was I pan fried the salmon and added more dill to taste. Will make again!
John Alvarado
This was an easy recipe with great flavor. We are enjoying more salmon because of this recipe.
Evan Ellis
Decent recipe. The sauce was appropriately thick so it stayed on the salmon throughout the grilling time. I like a dill sauce on my salmon so this hit the spot.
Bradley Collins
I baked the fish and put it over salad. I topped it off with this dip. It was better than any dressing I’ve had.
Jeffrey Morales
I love this it was yummy !? instead of grilling the fish I put it in the oven at 400° for 17 mins
Adam Hester
The sauce was delicious and kept the salmon very succulent. Will definitely make again.
Gregory Owen
Mixed the dill into honey mustard salad dressing, no other ingredients. I don’t care much for fish, but this made it tasty.
Gregory Smith
EZ and delicious addition to an already tasty salmon!!!
Thomas Holland
When your husband loves a recipe, you save it! So easy & delicious!!
Rachel Todd
Absolutely delicious! I did add a few more punches of brown sugar. Make sure the salmon fillets aren’t too thick. Mine took longer than expected to cook all the way through. I’d definitely make this again!
Brenda Boyle
My seven-year-old just said he would eat this for dessert every day if you could. Super easy and tasty. Made as directed and Big win all around!
Ryan Orozco
We loved this! I made it exactly as the recipe says and has since become a staple recipe in our home!
Nicole Rice
The recipe was awesome! My husband is on a cardiac diet, so I made some changes including using avocado oil instead of vegetable oil and using vegan mayonnaise instead of regular mayo. I also left out the salt and the dish was fabulous!

I had NEVER grilled fresh salmon before. It was very easy to make and my family like it. Had good flavor. I used brown spiced mustard and wanted it to be sweeter so I added more brown sugar. Will be making this again. This recipe is a keeper.

We loved this salmon. My granddaughter was visiting us and she loved it also. I would like to have my daughter try it because she wants to start liking fish. I didn’t change a thing. I used Kirklands frozen salmon. I am looking forward to having it again. I used fresh dill because I had it but I think it would be good with dried dill also.
