Lemony Grilled Salmon Fillets with Dill Sauce
2 medium lemons
4 salmon fillets (6 oz. each)
Lemony-Dill Sauce: 1 ½ tsp. cornstarch
½ cup water
1/3 cup lemon juice
4 tsp. butter

Grill salmon and lemon slices, covered, over high heat or broil 3-4 inch from the heat for 3-5 minutes on each side or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and lemons are lightly browned.
For sauce: In a small saucepan, combine the cornstarch, water and lemon juice; add butter. Cook and stir over medium heat, until thickened and bubbly. Remove from the heat; stir in quartered lemon slices and seasonings. Serve with salmon and grilled lemon slices. 4 servings (3/4 cup sauce)
