Ingredients

Salmon:

4 tbsp. EVOO

2 medium salmon fillets or 1 large salmon fillet

8 small white or button mushrooms, halved

2 tbsp. dried dill

1 lemon

Sea salt

Cracked black pepper

Tzatziki:

1 cup Greek yogurt (Fage) -- Oikos is a great brand and is 0% fat

2 tbsp. dried dill

2 tbsp. EVOO

1 clove garlic, sliced

1/3 of a medium sized cucumber

Salt and pepper

Directions

Begin by preparing the tzatziki so it can set and really absorb the flavors.

Chop cucumbers and strain all liquid in a cheese cloth or soak in paper towels.

Strain yogurt also.

Combine all ingredients in a food processor and blend until completey smooth.

Chill.

Preheat oven to 400.

Grab a sheet of tinfoil about twice the length of your fish.

Place half of the sheet on a baking tray allowing the rest of the foil to hang off.

Lightly oil the foil and place fish on top.

Lightly oil the top of the fillets and place mushrooms around the edges and on top.

Sprinkle some sea salt and cracked pepper over the fillets.

Season with the dill.

Slice the lemon in rings and place them all over the top of the fillets and mushrooms.

Close tin foil over the fish and crimp the edges.

Leave the front end open slightly and it helps to create a little "chimney" tube in the top for steam release.

BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL WHEN OPENING!!!!!!!

Anything tzatziki works for me. I actually tried once to grill chicken with it. It was quite interesting as it formed a crust on it, instead of melting on top of it. Love your recipe!

I;m glad you listed your fav brand name on the yogurt. I've never had Greek yogurt and I always hear alot about it.
