20-Minute Skillet Salmon

I LOVE salmon... and I just found this recipe on the Kraft Food & Family website that looks SO good and very easy... so I wanted to share! :)


  • 1 Tbsp. oil

  • 4 salmon fillets (1 lb.)

  • 1 cup fat free milk

  • 1/2 cup (1/2 of 8-oz. tub) PHILADELPHIA Light Cream Cheese Spread

  • 1/2 cup chopped cucumbers

  • 2 Tbsp. chopped fresh dill

Note: Check salmon fillets for bones before cooking by running fingers over surface. Small bumps are usually a sign of bones. Use tweezers to remove any bones.

HEAT oil in large skillet on medium-high heat. Add salmon; cook 5 min. on each side or until salmon flakes easily with fork. Remove from skillet; cover to keep warm.

ADD milk and cream cheese spread to skillet; cook and stir until cream cheese spread is melted and mixture is well blended. Stir in cucumbers and dill.

RETURN salmon to skillet. Cook 2 min. or until heated through. Serve salmon topped with the cream cheese sauce.

I tried this topping for some salmon that we grilled. It's good but very bland....we needed to add some spices to add flavor. I also had a problem with it foaming up while heating on the stove....not sure how to avoid that. Need to experiment more with this recipe. -Chris :)

But I think it got frothy because you made it in a separate saucepan instead of the skillet that was just used to saute the fish. Maybe the oil and juices from the sauted fish keeps the sauce from getting frothy like that...

Just a thought. :)
