Equipment

  • knife
  • cutting board
  • grill (or indoor grill pan)
  • mixing bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 10 oz salmon
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes (diced)
  • 1 cucumber (diced)
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 lemon (juiced)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh dill (chopped)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Prep Your Salmon: Place your beautiful salmon fillets on a plate. Drizzle them with olive and a sprinkle of salt.
  • Fire Up the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If you don't have a grill, no worries! You can use an indoor grill pan on your stovetop or a regular saute pan.
  • Grill Time: Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the hot grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of your fillets. You'll know they are ready when they flake easily with a fork.
  • Make the Magic Sauce: While your salmon is grilling, let's whip up the star of the show!-the sour cream dill sauce. In a small bowl, mix together the sour cream, fresh dill, lemon juice, and seasonings. Stir it up until it;=;s smooth and creamy.
  • Plate and Enjoy: Once your salmon is grilled, place it on a plate and generously spoon the sour cream dill sauce on top and enjoy with fresh cherry tomatoes and cucumbers.
