Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven grill or a grill pan over high heat.
  2. Mix the olive oil, lemon zest and juice, dill, salt and pepper.
  3. Cut the salmon into four portions and brush the flesh with the marinade.
  4. Place the portions skin-side down on the oiled grill rack and grill for 6 to 8 minutes, depending on thickness.
  5. Check the doneness: the salmon should be pink in the center and flake easily.
  6. Meanwhile, slice the cucumber into thin rounds and season them with a little salt.
  7. Serve the salmon warm with the cucumber and the potatoes.

Parcel version. Wrap the portions with the marinade and cucumber in baking paper and bake for 15 minutes at 200 °C.
