Broiled Salmon with Creamy Lemon Sauce

(Originally posted by Blest)

Yum, yum, yummy. This recipe is definitely going into my “To be served to impress company” selection of recipes.��I grilled mine in my stove top grill pan instead of broiling,�because the oven was busy baking a pizza. Oh- and I used light sour cream instead of fat-free.� (When you go fat-free on stuff like that, you end up with a bunch of chemicals.)� Also, I didn’t use one big salmon fillet.� I used three of the little individually packaged frozen salmon fillets from Sam’s. (love those!!!)� Therefore, my serving size and total calories were a bit lower than the recipe indicates, and of course the cooking time could be different.

• 1 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 clove garlic
• 1/4 cup lemon juice
• 2 Tbsps capers
• 1 tsp lemon-pepper seasoning
• 1/2 cup fat-free sour cream
• 1 1/2 pounds salmon fillet

�Preheat the oven to 350 degrees farenheit.� Coat a baking sheet with cooking spray.�

Heat the oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute.� Reduce heat to low. Stir in the lemon juice, capers, and lemon-pepper and cook for 5 minutes.� Add the sour cream and cook for 5 minutes or until heated through.

Meanwhile, place the salmon on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes, or until the fish is just opaque. Serve with the sauce.
