Ingredients
- Salmon fillets: 2 pieces about 6oz each [170g each]
- Olive oil: 2 tbsp [30ml]
- Fresh dill: 3 tbsp finely chopped [45ml]
- Greek yogurt: 1 cup [240ml]
- Lemon: 1 zest and juice
- Salt: ½ tsp [2.5ml]
- Black pepper: ¼ tsp [1.25ml]
- Garlic clove: 1 minced
- Cucumber: ½ finely diced
Instructions
- Start by preheating your grill on medium heat. While it’s getting hot, let’s prep the salmon.
- Drizzle olive oil on both sides of the salmon fillets. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
- Once the grill is ready, place the salmon skin-side down. Grill for about 6-7 minutes.
- Carefully flip the salmon and let it grill for another 4-5 minutes or until it flakes easily with a fork.
- For the dill sauce, mix Greek yogurt, finely chopped dill, lemon zest, lemon juice, minced garlic, and diced cucumber in a bowl. Season with the remaining salt and pepper.
- Whisk the mixture well until all ingredients blend beautifully.
- Once the salmon is grilled to perfection, transfer it to plates.
