Title: Dilled Salmon with Asparagus
Categories: Seafood Salmon Vegetable
Yield: 4 Servings

1 1/2	lb	Fresh asparagus or
10	oz	Package frozen asparagus
2	tb	Soft tub margarine
2	ts	Lemon juice, fresh if
		Possible
2	ts	Fresh dill, snipped; or
1	ts	Dried dill; divided
		Vegetable cooking spray
4		Fresh salmon steaks (6 oz
		Each), 3/4 inch thick

Rinse asparagus and cut off the tough bottom portion of the stalks. Steam fresh asparagus in a vegetable steamer in a covered sauce pan, or cook in boiling water in a saucepan until just tender, about 5 minutes. If using frozen, simply defrost.

In a small saucepan, melt margarine. Add lemon juice and 1/2 of the dill, reserving the rest for garnish.

Coat broiler or grill with vegetable spray. Place the salmon steaks, evenly spaced, on a broiler pan in oven or on the grill over medium-hot coals. Brush 1/2 of the lemon-margarine mixture on the salmon steaks. Broil about 6 inches from the heat source for 5 minutes. Turn, baste with the remaining 1/2 of the mixture and broil for 5-6 more minutes, or until the salmon meat flakes. Remove salmon to warmed plates. Put asparagus stalks over the salmon and sprinkle lightly with remaining dill.
