Ingredients
2 – 6 ounce salmon fillets
1 small cucumber
2 1/4 inch thick slices of red onion, diced
1/4 cup fat free Greek yogurt
1/4 cup Lebni (Greek sour cream)
zest of one lemon
juice of one lemon
1/4 cup fresh dill
salt and pepper to taste
Makes two servings
Ingredients
Coat the salmon fillet with whatever spices you have on hand such as garlic powder, pepper, oregano and basil. Place it in a ziploc bag with the juice from half a lemon. Refrigerate until ready to cook. When ready to cook, you can cook the salmon any way you want, remembering not to add oil since that ads fat and calories.
For the sauce, chop the cucumber and onion into 1/8 to 1/4 pieces. Mix the cucumber, onion, dill, zest, juice from half the lemon, yogurt and sour cream together. Salt and pepper to taste. Let refrigerate for at least one hour before serving as the flavors will deepen and become stronger together. Some of the liquid from the yogurt and sour cream will separate. Remove this liquid to make the sauce thicker.
When you serve you can top the salmon with the sauce or serve it on the side. This dish goes well with fresh asparagus, on a salad or with rice or orzo.
