Grilled Salmon with Lemon Dill Sauce



INGREDIENTS

The Salmon
1 lb salmon steaks or fillets
3 lemons
olive oil
ground pepper

The Dill Sauce
4-6 oz plain yogurt
1/2 cucumber chopped and minced
1 tablespoon dill weed
1 teaspoon mint leaves, finely chopped
1/2 lemon, juiced
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper

1.  Place salmon in a foil boat, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with pepper.  Slice one lemon into four rounds and place on the salmon.  Juice 1 1/2 lemons and drizzle over salmon.  Close the foil boat, and grill until the salmon flakes away easily with a fork.  A one inch thick piece of salmon will grill for about 10 - 12 minutes.

2.  In a medium bowl, combine yogurt, cucumber, dill weed, mint leaves, pepper and lemon juice.  Serve over salmon.
