Preparation

Step 1

Set the top rack of the oven about 5 inches from the broiler and preheat broiler for about 15 minutes.

Stir the mayo, dill, shallot, lemon juice, mustard, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl. Coat the meat side of the salmon fillets with the mixture and then place them, meat side up, on an aluminum-foil-lined baking sheet.

Broil the salmon until the coating is deep golden brown, even a little black in spots, about 5 to 7 minutes. Turn off the broiler and keep the oven door closed until the salmon is cooked the way you like it; 5 minutes more will give you a medium fillet. Serve immediately.
