Mollie's Broiled Salmon with Caper Sauce: Submitted by: Vickie | Date Added: 11 Apr 2015 Ingredients:

This is a dish that you have to eyeball depending on the size (both length & thickness) of your salmon. For a 9-12 inch piece:

1 piece of fresh salmon, with skin (deboned, rinsed & patted dry.)

1/2 c Mayo ( DO NOT USE LOW-CAL OR LOW FAT!)
1-2 T capers, drained & patted dry
juice of 1/2 lemon
1-2 T minced red onion
dill
dash of salt & pepper
dash of garlic powder
pats of butter

Cooking Instructions:

Preheat oven to 400.

Lay salmon, skin side down, on Pam sprayed baking sheet or casserole dish. Sprinkle with salt, pepper & garlic powder. Top with pats of butter.
Bake for 10-15 minutes (depending on thickness), just until salmon begins to cook. DO NOT OVERCOOK!

While salmon is cooking, mix together mayo, capers, lemon juice, & onion. Add chopped dill, salt, pepper, & garlic powder. GO EASY ON THE SALT BECAUSE CAPERS ARE SALTY! Taste & adjust seasoning.

Remove salmon from oven. Spread sauce on top of salmon (usually some is left over to serve on the side) and bake 5-10 minutes longer.
