Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Place the salmon fillets in the pan, skin side down. Cook for 4-5 minutes or until the skin is crispy and the salmon is halfway cooked.
Carefully flip the salmon and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Remove from the pan and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix together the sour cream, prepared horseradish, lemon juice, chopped dill, and minced garlic. Stir until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
To serve, place a salmon fillet on a plate and spoon a generous dollop of horseradish cream over the top.
Garnish with fresh dill and serve with lemon wedges on the side for an extra splash of freshness.
