Salmon With Cucumber Salad. Place, skin side down, in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-low. Cucumber salad perfectly accompanies a piece of grilled salmon. Salting and draining the cucumbers first intensifies their flavor and makes the salad less watery. Once the cucumbers have released some of their moisture, pat them dry on paper towels and dress them with sour cream, vinegar and dill. The creamy cucumber dill salad was low cal because I used Greek yogurt instead of sour cream and mayo.
The purple onion gave a tangy flavor.
Also I substituted red wine vinegar for white wine vinegar which tasted delicious.
