Dill Salmon

Ingredients

For The Fish:

  • 4 Raskin’s skinless salmon, cut into 3-inch by 3-inch squares
  • 1 bottle Raskin’s Lemon Dill Marinade (we love this stuff)

For The Salad:

  • 3 Persian cucumbers, finely diced
  • 1 small red onion, finely diced
  • Handful of fresh dill, chopped (or 1 cube frozen dill)
  • juice of 1 lemon
  • 1 tsp sugar or sweetener
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • Place the salmon on a lined baking sheet. Dredge the salmon with the dill dip. Be generous.
  • Bake uncovered for 15 minutes or until salmon flakes easily.

Notes

This recipe also works well with white fish (such as sea bass, halibut, turbot, etc.).

This recipe also works well with white fish (such as sea bass, halibut, turbot, etc.). For a really premium treat (and probably the best salmon you’ve ever tasted) you can also try this on Raskin’s KING salmon (a fav).

    For those of us who don’t live in the tristate area, and don’t have access to all the variety you tri-state-ers do, do you have a rec for replacing the dill marinade? Is it just lemon + dill + mayo base?

    Thanks!

      Yes. That’s the main flavor profile.. It’s more like a dressing than a marinade, per se.
