Dill Encrusted Salmon with Pickled Cucumbers

bpicture-006Dill Encrusted Salmon with Pickled Cucumbers

Serves 4

2 Large Cucumbers

3 T Rice-Wine Vinegar

1/2 C Fresh Dill, chopped

1 t Sugar

1 t Salt

4 Salmon fillets, 5 oz each, skin removed

1/4 t Pepper

Pre-heat grill until very hot.

Peal cucumbers in lengthwise strips, leaving small strips of skin.

Slice cucumbers into thin rounds (I used my mandolin slicer).

Toss cucumbers with vinegar, 3 T dill, sugar, and 3/4 t salt in a medium bowl.  Let sit.

Sprinkle both sides of the salmon fillets with remaining salt, pepper and dill.

Grill on high for 4 minutes per side, or until salmond is just cooked through.  (You know salmon is done when it appears flaky).

Place pickled cucumbers on a plate or serving platter and top with fillets.

  1. Oh please tell me how to remove the skin of the salmon before cooking. I’ve never been able to do it successfully till after cooking.
