This is what I came up with after playing around because I was craving fresh fish and dill. One of my finest hits, according to critics! Excellent with cooked green beans and either rice or potatoes.

Reviews
This recipe was quick, easy and very light. When I got home and discovered that the salmon I had just purchased had skin on it, I was disappointed. When it was finished, the skin was really easy to remove. My husband does not like nuts so I left them off and used dried dill since I didn’t have fresh. Still a delicious meal!
Easy and delicious! I would use the sauce with any type of fish.
Quick, easy & tasty!
Made this, family loved it! Next time I will definitely add more lemon (love the taste of lemon on salmon and I wanted it to show through more) and I’m also going to try and whisk in a small amount of flour to make the sauce thicker. But I have already shared with others.
I love this recipe!
Very good! Whole family like it. Served with green beans, potatoes and some mac & ch.
My husband and I eat salmon all the time so I’m always looking for new ways to make it. This sounded promising because of sauce ingredients. Very disappointing. My husband said it didn’t taste of anything. Not a keeper
This was delicious! My whole family loved it. I used a lot of dill, but it didn’t seem to overpower the dish. Also, sealing the dish with aluminum foil kept it from drying out, which usually happens when I cook salmon. I forgot to put on the toasted almonds, but it was still amazing. I’ll try it again soon with the almonds.
Easy and good the only change i made was to add some capers. The pan juices are great on a baked potato 🙂
Made this for dinner today. Great recipe, it was delicious! Served with Potatoes A la Pat and Green Beans.
Very easy and delicious!
Sauce tasted great. Had to use dried dill instead of fresh
Except for changing out salmon for orange roughy, which I already had in the freezer, I followed the recipe to a T. We thought the sauce was somewhat bland. Other than some salt, I don’t know what else the sauce needed, but it DID need something else to “lift” the flavors up. It IS low-carb, so for those watching carbohydrate intake, this recipe is a good choice. Uncomplicated too and could be easily made on a work night.
Followed recipe added a little lemon pepper seasoning and left almonds out. Delicious, my family loved it!!
In my quest to find a really good salmon recipe, I had high hopes for this one and then only to be disappointed! Only reason I gave it 3 stars is because my husband said it was okay.
Super
It was really good, in the picture most of the salmon is gone. I kinda put my own twist on it but still used the general recipe
SO YUMMY!
I used 4 thick strips of salmon with no skin. The marinade baked into the whole piece and was so delicious. I served it over spinach sauteed in oil,butter and garlic. Will definitely make this again!
This recipe was amazing! My family actually had seconds if the salmon which is a big surprise because two of my kids don’t like fish. Thank you.
Here’s proof that a great dish doesn’t have to be difficult to make. Actually, “great” falls short of describing this “oh, my gosh this is really, really, really good!” Ideal for company because you 1) put it in the oven and set the timer and 2) pull it out of the oven, sprinkle the almonds and bring to the table.
