If you’re like most people, the first place your mind goes when it’s time to dream up Father’s Day gifts is outside, in the general direction of the grill. And if the dad in question is like most dads, he already has his fair share of tongs, trays, tools and toys. Here’s an idea: How about something that actually gets cooked on the grill? Like, for instance, a box of wild, sustainably-sourced, sockeye salmon from Alaska’s pristine Bristol Bay? A few weeks ago, an Alaskan fisherman named Matt emailed me about his new company, Wild Alaska Direct which delivers boneless meal-size portions of premium sockeye anywhere in the US with free shipping. (If that didn’t sell me, his P.S. about being a gin-and-tonic soulmate certainly did.) Anyway, Matt was nice enough to offer an exclusive Father’s Day giveaway contest for DALS readers: A 5-pound box of fillet portions, delivered right to one lucky winner’s door. That’s six dinners for two, twelve single portions, or a dinner for you and 11 of your closest friends. How fun is that? To be eligible, all you have to do is comment below. Contest ends Sunday, June 5 at 8:00 ET. (Update: The winner has been notified. Thank you all for playing!)
Olive oil
salt and pepper
1 tablespoon chives
3 tablespoons finely chopped dill
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
salt and pepper
dash of hot sauce
Salmon with a creamy sauce is the best!
Both the giveaway and the recipe sound like they’d make the perfect dinner party!
This recipe looks delicious, thanks for sharing! We’ve been eating a lot of salmon lately so I’m excited to check out his company and order some-no doubt it’s tastier than what I can buy in the store!
Love your website and would love to try the salmon!
Sounds like a great idea
We love salmon and we love this site!
I love this❤️
The salmon sounds delicious, but I really want the recipe for the beets and green beans. Those look amazing! Thanks for the lovely giveaway.
I love salmon. Used to live in oregon now live in Pennsylvania can’t find good salmon so this is great.
I love simply prepared salmon!
I eat salmon several times a week and would love to try wild salmon!
Looks delicious, I would love to win this beautiful salmon!
Well, that’s several holiday gifts sorted.
Yahoo! Love you Dad.
What a great idea for a Father’s Day gift! I would love to win this for ,my son-in-law.
Fabulous gift idea!
Sounds phenomenal!!!
Love this idea! My dad has some health problems and we are trying to adapt to the new dietary restrictions that go along with it, so this would be a special way to eat right!
Looks amazing! We love salmon at our house. When my daughter was young we called it “pink chicken” to get her to eat it, we all affectionately call it that to this day.
Would love this. Salmon is one of the few foods my
family of four agrees on!
Yummy!!
My husband (and all of us) would love this.
That would be a perfect addition to the Father’s Day gift my husband just bought for himself – a new grill! And, the recipe is perfectly timed as I just bought home some salmon from the market today. Thanks!
Oooh yes please!!:)
Thanks again for the fantastic recipe and Father’s Day gift inspiration!!
