Salmon seems to lend itself to al fresco dining, and this dish is easy to prepare on the grill. For a lighter dinner, serve with a fresh garden salad and bread. For a heartier meal, pair it with a nutty rice pilaf. Hard to go wrong!

Ingredient List

1 cup from 1 tub Mountain High™ Original Plain Whole Milk Yoghurt
3 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon dried dill weed
4 (about 8 oz each) salmon steaks (1-inch thick)
2 tablespoons butter
1 egg, slightly beaten

Preparation

In a 12x7-inch baking dish, combine 1/2 cup of the yoghurt, water, oil, and 1/4 teaspoon of the dill weed. Place salmon on top and turn to coat both sides evenly with marinade; cover and chill for 1 hour. Remove salmon and discard marinade.
Using direct medium heat, grill or broil fish just until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 8 to 10 minutes, turning fish 2/3 of the way through cooking time.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Stir in remaining 1/2 cup yoghurt, 1/4 teaspoon dill weed, and egg. Over low heat, cook and stir until thickened and temperature reaches 160°F. Do not boil. Serve warm sauce over salmon.

Tips
