Grilled Salmon Potato Salad

 

This potato salad is dressed with a creamy dill dressing and topped with a fillet of perfectly cooked salmon.

 

A quick cooking tip for salmon: if the skin is on the salmon, add it to the pan or BBQ skin side down.

 

Lower-carb option: Substitute the potatoes with additional cucumber.

 

Time: 20 minutes.
