Salmon Sandwich

Although it's November, this weekend has been sunny and warm- not exactly comfort food weather. My usually summery salmon sandwiches are just the right meal on a day that feels refreshing and healthy.

You will need:

salmon filets
brioche rolls
1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup sour cream
3/4 teaspoon white wine vinegar
12 basil leaves
3/4 cup dill, chopped
1 1/2 tablespoons scallion
kosher salt, pepper
3 teaspoons capers, drained
your favorite lettuce

For the salmon:

The salmon is awesome grilled on a cedar plank on a big green egg but if you lack both like me.....

Set the oven to high broil
Wash salmon filets
Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper
Place under the broiler
Cook 3 minutes on each side

For the sauce:


Place mayo, sour cream, vinegar, basil, dill,
scallions, salt and pepper in a Cuisinart.
Process until combined
Add capers and pulse 3 more times

Slather the brioche with dill sauce
Layer with salmon and lettuce
