Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Pat the salmon dry and season on all sides with salt and pepper. Place on a large sheet of foil (large enough to wrap around the entire piece of salmon) placed on a rimmed baking sheet.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, juice and zest of 1 lemon, honey (or maple syrup), garlic, dill seed, 1 teaspoon salt, and a few grinds of black pepper. Cut the remaining lemon into thin rounds.
Pour the marinade evenly over the salmon. Top with about half of the lemon rounds and wrap the salmon loosely in foil, enclosing it completely.
Transfer to the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, until the salmon is cooked through to the desired doneness.
Meanwhile, whisk together all the ingredients for your dill yogurt sauce. Season to taste with salt and cayenne, as desired.
If desired, unwrap the salmon and broil on the upper oven rack until the top is lightly golden brown. Garnish with chopped fresh dill and the remaining lemon rounds. Serve with dill yogurt sauce.
