Grilled Salmon with Dill Sauce and Salad
Total time: 20 minutes
Dill is often passed by as an herb (other than for dips) but it pairs well with fish and adds flavor to salad dressings. There is a lot of salt on the fish, but it's brushed off before eating.
Ingredients:
- 2 salmon fillets, 6oz each (180gr each)
- lettuce for 2 small salads
- 2 tbs snipped fresh dill leaves (weed), divided
- 1 tsp coarse
salt
- 1/4 cup (2oz, 60gr) Greek or plain yogurt
- 2 tbs mayonnaise
- 5 tsp white Balsamic vinegar
- 2 tbs salad olive oil, divided
- 1/2 tsp Dijon-style mustard
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
Instructions:
- Salmon:
- Sprinkle 1 tbs dill evenly over salmon.
- Sprinkle salt on top of dill.
- Cook on barbecue grill 5 - 7 minutes per side, depending on thickness. OR put on baking sheet and roast in 400 F oven for 15 - 20 minutes, depending on thickness. Salmon should flake easily with fork when done but it's okay to have it still a bit pink in the center.
- Remove and with a fork or table knife gently scrape the salt and dill off of the salmon.
- Dill Sauce:
- Mix yogurt, mayonnaise, garlic, 3 tsp vinegar and remaining 1 tbs dill.
- Add olive oil and whisk until combined.
- Salad Dressing:
- Put 1 tbs Dill Sauce in another small bowl.
- Add 2 tsp white Balsamic vinegar, 1/2 tsp mustard and whisk well.
- Slowly whisk in 1 tbs olive oil.
- To finish:
- Prepare lettuce and arrange on plates.
- Lay salmon next to lettuce.
- Spoon a bit of Dill Sauce next to the salmon and drizzle the dressing on the lettuce. Serve.
