    Servings and Ingredients

    Ingredients
    Serves 4
    QuantityIngredientAdd
    1 ½ lbs. salmon fillets, skin on
    2 tbsp. Hy-Vee Select olive oil
    2 tbsp. Hy-Vee brown sugar
    2 garlic cloves, minced
    2 tsp. dried dill, divided
    1 medium cucumber, peeled, seeded and sliced thin
    2 tbsp. Hy-Vee plain yogurt or sour cream
    2 tsp. Hy-Vee Select white wine vinegar

    Directions

    1. Submerge cedar planks in cold water at least 1 hour or overnight.
    2. Brush skin side of fillets with oil and place in a large dish. In a small bowl combine brown sugar, garlic and 1 teaspoon of the dill. Spread sugar mixture over salmon, pressing to coat. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight.
    3. Preheat grill to medium-low (250 to 300 degrees). Place cedar planks on grill. Heat planks until they begin to smoke, about 5 minutes.
    4. Season salmon with salt and pepper to taste. Place salmon, skin side down, on planks. Grill, covered, 20 to 25 minutes. Salmon is done when instant-read thermometer registers 135 degrees and fish flakes easily with a fork.
    5. Meanwhile, for sauce, in a small bowl combine remaining dill plus cucumber, yogurt, vinegar, and salt and pepper to taste; stir. Serve salmon with sauce.
