Ingredients
One half piece of wild caught salmon, skin on
2 lbs leeks, chopped
3 tbs sour cream
2 tbs butter
4 tbs olive oil, divided
1 lemon
1 tbs capers
1/4 cup fresh chopped dill
salt and black pepper to taste

may add parmesan

Instructions
Melt 2 tbs butter and 2 tbs olive oil in a deeper pan
Add the chopped leeks, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and saute on a low to medium heat for 10-15 minutes until they are soft
Add the sour cream to the leeks, stir and cook for a minute. Remove from heat and pour into a shallow baking dish (big enough to hold the fish fillet)
Meanwhile preheat the oven to 400
Rinse the salmon fillet and pat dry; make a few cuts on top of the flesh and brush the fish with 2 tbs of olive oil (ore more, depending on the size).
Squeeze the juice of one lemon over the fish, and add salt and pepper liberally
Sprinkle the fresh dill and capers all over the salmon
Slide the fish on top of the leeks, and bake for 20 minutes.
Garnish with more lemon, capers and dill if needed.
