Lot's of chefs, via TV or cookbooks, will lie to you and say they make a certain dish. Make no mistake, this is the most popular dish in our house. It's the most popular dish by people who visit our house. It's really not hard to imagine why.
Salmon naturally has a delicious flavor. The dill, butter, garlic and lemon all serve to amplify not mask it.
I love to cook this dish because it's simple, easy, fast, and appropriate for virtually any situation.
