Salmon with Spinach, Tomatoes, and Dill-Mustard Sauce
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup(s) fat free sour cream
- 4 tsp mustard, whole-grain variety
- 1 Tbsp dill, fresh, chopped
- 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 pound(s) uncooked salmon fillet(s) with or without skin, 4 (1?4-pound) skinless
- 1 tsp table salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper, freshly ground
- 1/3 cup(s) uncooked shallot(s), chopped
- 2 clove(s) (medium) garlic clove(s), minced
- 2 cup(s) grape tomatoes
- 10 oz fresh spinach, triple-washed
Instructions
- To make the dill-mustard sauce, combine the sour cream, mustard, dill, and lemon juice in a small bowl; set aside.
- Sprinkle the salmon with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and 1/8 teaspoon of the pepper. Spray a large nonstick skillet with olive oil nonstick spray and set over medium-high heat. Add the salmon and cook until golden and just opaque in the center, 5/6 minutes on each side. Transfer the salmon to a platter; cover to keep warm.
- Add the shallots and garlic to the skillet; cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften, 1/2 minutes. Add the spinach and cook, tossing frequently, until wilted, 1/2 minutes. Stir in the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Serve the salmon with the spinach mixture and the dill-mustard sauce.
