Luscious Lime-Dill Salmon: Quick & Flavorful Pan-Grilled Delight 🍋🐟

Pan-grilled Salmon with Lime and Dill 🍋🐟

Description: This delightful recipe was born out of a craving for salmon amidst a busy day, perfect for those moments when time is of the essence. Pair it with boiled potatoes or rice alongside a microwaved veggie for a quick, satisfying dinner. The result? Juicy and moist salmon, with a firm texture – just the way it should be! Inspired by my dad’s favorite method of coating fish with mayonnaise for grilling, I’ve adapted it for pan-grilling, especially ideal for chilly days. The infusion of lime and dill complements the salmon beautifully, adding a burst of fresh flavor to each bite.

   • Rinse the salmon and pat dry with paper towels.
   • Remove any bones that may be sticking out.

2. Prep the Limes:

   • Rinse the limes thoroughly.

3. Make the Mayonnaise-Lime Mixture:

   • In a medium bowl, place 3/4 cup of mayonnaise.
   • Cut the limes in half and squeeze the juice into the bowl.
   • Whisk or mix with a fork until smooth, ensuring no lumps remain. Add more mayonnaise if needed until the mixture reaches the consistency of a smooth, fairly thin cream sauce.

4. Season the Mixture:

   • Crumple the dried dill between your fingers before adding it to the mixture, releasing extra flavor.
   • Season with salt to taste, ensuring even distribution of dill and salt throughout the mixture.

5. Coat the Salmon:

   • Add the salmon steaks to the mayonnaise-lime mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.

6. Prepare the Pan:

   • Spray a nonstick frying pan with non-stick cooking spray.
   • Place the pan on the stove over medium-high heat to preheat.

7. Grill the Salmon:

   • Once the pan is hot, carefully place the salmon steaks in the pan. If cooking more than two steaks, you may need to cook them in batches.
   • Using a pastry brush, periodically brush additional mayonnaise-lime mixture over the top surface and sides of the salmon.

8. Flip and Continue Cooking:

   • When the salmon appears opaque halfway through and is lightly browned (approximately 2 to 4 minutes), flip the steaks.
   • Brush the top surface and sides of the salmon with the mayonnaise-lime mixture a few more times.
   • Allow the salmon to cook through for an additional 2 to 3 minutes until it is opaque and firm throughout the thickest part.

9. Serve Hot:

   • Once cooked to perfection, remove the salmon from the pan.
   • Serve immediately while piping hot and enjoy the juicy, flavorful goodness!
