Lemon-Dill Sauce for Fish

Submitted by Kittencalrecipezazz

"This is a nice change from tartar sauce, it's great to serve along side of fish, plan ahead this needs to chill for 2 hours or up to 24 hours before serving. One teaspoon or a small clove of fresh garlic is all that is needed or it will overpower the sauce, the flavours of this sauce will increase with chilling time, please adjust the dill to suit taste. Cooking time is chilling time."

Yum! Great easy recipe! Since I didn't have an actual lemon, I didn't add the lemon rind and I used 1 tablespoon of freeze dried dill. I also drizzled it over the fish one minute before it was done cooking. Made for the Kittencal Cook-a-Thon.
