Categories     Dinner

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 (6-oz) salmon fillets, skin on
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
kosher salt
freshly ground black pepper
1 English cucumber (also called hothouse cucumber)
⅓ cup finely sliced red onion, from one small red onion
½ teaspoon salt
¼ cup plus 2 tablespoons sour cream
3 tablespoons mayonnaise, best quality such as Hellmann's or Duke's
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
¼ cup chopped fresh dill
1 clove garlic, minced
½ teaspoon sugar
freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Cut the cucumber in half and then slice each half down the middle lengthwise. Use the tip of a teaspoon to scoop out the center seeds. Cut each half into thin slices and place in a colander along with the red onion slices. Toss with salt and let sit in the sink for at least 30 minutes, until the water drains out.
  • In the meantime, make the dressing: combine the sour cream, mayonnaise, white wine vinegar, dill, garlic, sugar and black pepper in a medium bowl and mix well.
  • When the cucumbers and onions are ready, release any excess water by tapping the colander on the base of the sink, then use a large wad of paper towels to pat the vegetables dry. Add to the dressing and toss well. Cover and chill until ready to serve.
  • Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Clean the grill rack, then brush lightly with oil. Close the lid and let return to temperature. Rub the salmon with olive oil and season generously with kosher salt (about ¾ teaspoon) and pepper. Place the fillets skin side down and grill until golden brown and slightly charred, 4-5 minutes (resist the urge to peek or flip early; when fillets are nicely seared on the first side, they should release easily). Flip the fillets over and continue grilling until done, 2-3 minutes. Let cool slightly, remove the skin if desired, and serve with the cold cucumber-dill salad piled over top or alongside.

GRILLED SALMON WITH MEYER LEMONS AND CREAMY CUCUMBER SALAD



Grilled Salmon with Meyer Lemons and Creamy Cucumber Salad image

Meyer lemons' juice is more sweet than acidic, like a cross between a lemon and an orange. Even their zest is distinct-flowery more than citrusy-and they work so perfectly here.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

Salmon:
4 (6-ounce) skin-on wild-caught salmon fillets
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil, plus more for grilling
1 tablespoon grated Meyer or regular lemon zest
Juice of 2 Meyer lemons (see head note) or regular lemons, plus 1 or 2 Meyer or regular lemons, sliced into 8 thin rounds
1 tablespoon minced fresh dill
1 tablespoon pink or regular sea salt
Creamy Cucumber Salad:
1/2 cup mayonnaise, preferably Hellmann's
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon fresh Meyer or regular lemon juice, or to taste
1 teaspoon minced fresh dill
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 English cucumbers, peeled in stripes, halved, and cut into 1/4-inch dice
Garnish:
1 tablespoon minced chives

Steps:

  • To prepare the salmon:
  • To prepare the salmon: Brush the skin side of the salmon fillets with some olive oil. In a small bowl, combine the 1/2 cup olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, dill, and salt. Pour the mixture into a shallow dish and place the fillets skin side up in the dish. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the creamy cucumber salad: In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice, dill, salt, and pepper. Fold in the cucumber until completely coated. Taste and adjust the lemon juice or salt. Cover and refrigerate until needed, up to 2 hours.
  • Prepare a medium-hot grill. Lightly oil the grill grate.
  • Place the fillets skin side down on the grill and brush them with the marinade. Cover the grill and cook without flipping until the salmon flakes, 10 to 12 minutes. Brush the lemon slices on both sides with oil and grill until marks appear, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
  • Arrange the fish on individual plates or a serving platter. Place 1 or 2 grilled lemon slices on top of each fillet and dust with chives. Serve with the cucumber salad.
  • Store leftover salmon and cucumber salad in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
