GRILLED SALMON AND DILL SAUCE 
SAUCE:

1/2 tsp. finely shredded lemon peel
1 (8 oz.) carton plain lowfat yogurt
1/4 c. sliced green onions
1/4 c. snipped fresh dill or 1 tsp. dried dill weed
1 tbsp. capers

In a small mixing bowl, combine lemon peel, yogurt, green onions, dill and capers. Add half the mixture to the blender container; cover and blend until smooth. Stir into remaining mixture in the bowl.

16 oz. fresh or frozen salmon fillet, skinned and thawed (about 1 inch
thick) or 4 salmon steaks may be used, each about 1 inch thick
1 tbsp. olive oil

Cut salmon fillets into 4 portions; brush with olive oil. Spray grill rack with non-stick spray coating. Grill salmon over medium-hot coals for 5 minutes. Turn salmon. Grill 5 to 7 minutes more until fish just flakes with a fork.

TO SERVE: Spoon about 2 tablespoons of sauce onto each dinner plate. Top with salmon. Serve with rice and grilled lemon slices. Slices of lemon may be grilled by adding lemon slices to the grill when you turn the fish. Store any remaining sauce covered in the refrigerator for use as a salad dressing or meat accompaniment. Makes 4 servings.

This recipe is DEVINE! I did make an alteration, instead of shredded lemon peel, I used the juice of one lemon. I did I blended all the capers, so they would be "hidden!" Everyone loved it, even the "chef" brother-in-law.

EXCELLENT!!! I make this amount of the sauce for 2 servings because it is SO delicious you will want more. It is simple but it gives a elegant flavor and presntation. People will think you have slaved over this really complicated sauce but it is simple. TIP: I put all ingredients together and use a hand held blender to get it to the consistency I want instead of putting 1/2 in a blender.

Excellent!!! I also added some pine nuts to put a little twist on this sauce! And we loved the combination of the blended and unblended part! Can be used as a salad dressing later... Delicious!!
