This grilled entree may sound fancy, but it's actually a fuss-free way to prepare salmon. You can easily make the sauce in advance and store it in the refrigerator until mealtime.—Carole Holder, Norman, Oklahoma

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 1 teaspoon dill weed
  • 1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 4 salmon fillets (4 ounces each)
  • CUCUMBER SAUCE:
  • 2/3 cup finely chopped seeded peeled cucumber
  • 1/3 cup reduced-fat sour cream

  • 1-1/2 teaspoons reduced-fat mayonnaise
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon white pepper
