Ingredients

Directions

  1. Pat salmon steaks dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
  2. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  3. Place salmon steaks in the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until opaque and cooked through.
  4. Transfer cooked salmon to a warm platter and cover loosely to keep warm.
  5. Remove skillet from heat and add sour cream and dill to the remaining butter in the pan.
  6. Stir gently to combine the sauce, allowing the residual heat to warm the sour cream without curdling it.
