Grilled Salmon with Creamy Horseradish Sauce

Happy Spring!  This is one of my favorite salmon dishes. Its perfect for both Passover or Easter dinners. The creamy sauce with the bit of horseradish is both divine. I hope you enjoy this awesome salmon dinner. I love to serve it with steamed or grilled vegetables for a super healthy and delicious dinner. Enjoy and dig in!

Grilled Salmon with Creamy Horseradish

Adapted from Bon Apptit July 2003

Sauce

3/4 cup sour cream

1/4 cup mayonnaise

1 tablespoons prepared white horseradish

2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1 teaspoon soy sauce

Salmon

nonstick vegetable oil spray

3 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 tablespoon prepared white horseradish

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 garlic clove, minced

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground fresh black pepper

6 1 inch-think-salmon fillets (each about 6 oz)

Sauce

Mix all ingredients in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. cover and chill.)

Salmon

Spray the grill rack generously with nonstick spray. Prepare the barbecue (medium-high heat). Whisk oil, horseradish, soy sauce, garlic, salt, and pepper in another small bowl. Brush the oil mixture over both sides of salmon fillets. Grill salmon just until opaque in center, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer salmon to serving plate and serve with sauce.

Note: If you are craving this salmon and you don't want to grill or you don't have any horseradish, welcome to my dinner. We used wasabi paste for the heat. We roasted the salmon 8 to 10 minutes on just one side. Yum!
