Step 1

Prepare the dill sauce. In a bowl, whisk together the sour cream, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, lemon juice, two tablespoons olive oil, fresh dill, ½ teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon pepper. Mix well to loosen the sour cream and adjust the consistency with more olive oil, if needed. Set aside.

Clean the salmon and pat dry on a paper towel. Make two cuts on the skin side of the fillet to help the skin crisp when cooking. Season the salmon with salt and pepper.

In a skillet on medium heat, heat the remaining two tablespoons of olive oil. Place the salmon, skin-side down, into the pan and cook for 2 minutes. Flip the fillet over and cook for another 1-2 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through.
