Instructions

Prepare the salmon using your cooking method of choice (see blog post above for several preparation options).
Heat the coconut milk, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice and sea salt in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring the mixture to a full boil, then stir in the tapioca flour (optional). Whisk well until all of the clumps are out.
Continue cooking at a full but controlled boil, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened, about 5 to 8 minutes (or about 15 to 20 minutes if you aren’t adding tapioca flour).
Remove the sauce from the heat and stir in the fresh dill. Taste the sauce for flavor and add more lemon juice or salt to taste. Transfer the sauce to a small bowl and use the dill sauce immediately on fresh baked or grilled salmon, or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to use. Sauce stays fresh in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
Serve the dill salmon with your choice of healthy side dishes for a complete meal.
