Pan-Seared Salmon with Dill Sauce

With its mild flavor, pan-seared salmon goes with a variety of side dishes. Try it alongside a hearty baked potato, lemon-roasted potatoes or a brown rice pilaf. A fresh green salad and a medley of grilled vegetables would also be fitting sidekicks to this light and flavorful dish.

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 4 salmon fillets (6 ounces each)
  • 1 teaspoon italian seasoning
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup reduced-fat plain yogurt
  • 1/4 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped cucumber
  • 1 teaspoon snipped fresh dill

Instruction

  1. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Sprinkle salmon with Italian seasoning and salt. Place in skillet, skin side down. Reduce heat to medium. Cook until fish just begins to flake easily with a fork, about 5 minutes on each side.
  2. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine yogurt, mayonnaise, cucumber and dill. Serve with salmon.
