Ingredients

• 2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
• 4 salmon fillets, pin bones removed
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 pint sour cream
• 2 bunches dill, chopped
• Juice of 2 lemons
• 1 shallot, minced

Step 1

Coat a large skillet with olive oil and place over medium heat. When hot, add the fillets to the pan skin side down; season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes until the skin is nice and brown. Turn the fish over and cook for 3 minutes on the other side. Keep warm while preparing the sauce.

In a small bowl whisk together sour cream, dill, lemon juice, shallot, red pepper flakes and horseradish. Season with salt and pepper. Serve the sauce over the pan-seared salmon.
