Description
This Salmon with Feta Dill Sauce combines tender, flaky salmon with a creamy, herbaceous sauce that adds a burst of fresh flavor to every bite. The subtle tanginess of the feta cheese pairs perfectly with the bright, aromatic dill and smooth cream, creating a sauce that complements the richness of the salmon beautifully.
Ingredients
4 salmon fillets (3 to 4 ounces each)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Old Bay seasoning, to taste
2 tablespoons butter
1 1/4 cups heavy cream
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
4 oz crumbled feta cheese
3 tablespoons chopped fresh dill (reserve some for garnish)
Instructions
Season the salmon fillets with lemon juice and a sprinkle of Old Bay seasoning. Cook the salmon in the air fryer at 400°F for 8 to 10 minutes, or bake in the oven on a baking sheet at 400°F for 8 to 10 minutes until flaky and fully cooked.
In a skillet over high heat, melt the butter and add the heavy cream, Dijon mustard, and a bit of Old Bay seasoning. When the mixture begins to bubble, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the crumbled feta cheese and most of the fresh dill, reserving some dill for garnish. Continue to cook the sauce for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring until it reaches your desired thickness.
Serve the sauce over the cooked salmon fillets, garnishing with the reserved fresh dill.
