Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
1/2 cup cold water
1/3 cup lemon juice
1 tablespoon fresh dill
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon chervil
dash cayenne pepper
3 slices lemon, sliced thin & cut in quarters
4 centercut salmon steaks, 3/4" - 1" thick
2 whole lemons
dill sprigs


For sauce: Melt butter in small saucepan. Remove from heat. Combine
cornstarch with water; stir into butter in saucepan. Add lemon juice,
salt, chervil and cayenne pepper and stir to blend.

Bring sauce to a boil, stirring constantly. Cook until sauce thickens
and turns clear. Remove from heat and lemon quarters. Cover and set
aside.

Cut off and discard the ends of the 2 whole lemons; cut each into 3/4"-
1" slices. Put one slice into the opening of each salmon steak and
secure with toothpicks.

Grill 6-8" above hot coals, using hickory chips if desired. Grill for
10-15 min., turning once, until fish flakes easily when tested with a
fork.

Garnish steaks with dill sprigs and spoon some of the hot lemon-dill
sauce over each. Serve remaining sauce separately.
