Key Lime Salmon

Spring has fully arrived here in Brooklyn.

Cherry blossoms are just about to peak.
Pretty front yard

Early lilacs.





So I have a springlike dish to share.

Fair warning - this is one of my weirdly-inspired dishes.

The salmon part is normal. I just sprinkled a salmon filet (wild Alaska salmon) with dill and baked it in parchment paper.

I'd made rosemary potatoes to go with it, but it just felt bland. Most often when I had dill with salmon, it was in some kind of sour cream or yogurt sauce. I had neither of those...

EXCEPT...

I had Key Lime Greek yogurt.

I'll admit, I wasn't quite sure what to expect, so I just kept it on the side. I was pleasantly surprised.

Caveat - I periodically get Key lime cravings. Visions of a sunny Florida Key, Margaritaville, and all that, so it was going to be pretty hard to dislike this. Still, I wasn't sure how the flavors would meld.

The fact is, it tasted so good together that I had it again a week later!

Excuse the sad photo. I didn't make a very large portion and it was hard to get a good shot.



And the best part was, I didn't use up all the yogurt, so I got to mix in some mini chocolate chips for dessert!



YUM!

What do you think? Would you like this flavor mix? It's not SO very different from adding lemon, which we do all the time with seafood.
