Combine Salmon and Dill for a Midsummer Thrill

The dill is tall and fragrant, and just begging to be picked. And yes, it pairs perfectly with salmon, so let's bake it in foil for a 'put it together and then forget it' sort of dinner. 

Here's what you need for a moist and succulent salmon dinner.


                                             
salmon fillet (this one was 2 lbs)
1/4 cup white wine (I used pinot grigio)
three slices of lemon
1 tablespoon capers
fresh dill to taste
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1. Place the salmon fillet on a piece of aluminum foil large enough to to wrap into a pouch.
2. Top with all the other ingredients and enclose in the foil.
3. Bake at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes (or alternately try it on the grill) and you have a moist and delicious salmon dinner.

This is easy, delicious and basically cooks itself. Enjoy a chilled glass of the pinot while your dinner bakes.
