Grilled Lemon-Dill Salmon with Cucumber Salad
The salad can be made up to 8 hours ahead and chilled, covered!.

2 or 3 lemons
4 center-cut skin-on salmon fillets (6 to 8 oz!. each), rinsed and patted dry
2 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh dill, divided
1 English (seedless) cucumber
1/2 cup bottled cocktail onions, drained
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
About 2 teaspoons olive oil

Zest lemons to yield 2 tbsp!. zest!. Sprinkle salmon fillets with 1 1/2 tbsp!. zest (set remaining zest and whole lemons aside) and 1 1/2 tbsp!. dill, dividing evenly among fillets and patting to adhere!. Wrap fillets in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 2 hours and up to overnight!.

Slice cucumber paper-thin on a mandoline or other handheld slicer!. Cut onions in half!. In a bowl, whisk together vinegar, sugar, and 1/2 tsp!. salt!. Add cucumber, onions, remaining lemon zest and dill, and toss gently to coat!. Taste and adjust seasonings, if necessary!.
*****************
Prepare a gas or charcoal grill for indirect heat!. If using a gas grill, turn all burners to high and close lid!. When the temperature inside the grill reaches 400°, lift lid and turn off one of the burners, creating the indirect-heat area!. If using a charcoal grill, light 50 to 60 briquets and let burn until just covered with ash, 20 to 30 minutes!. Mound them to one side, leaving a cleared area for indirect cooking!.

Fold two 12- by 18-in!. pieces of heavy-duty aluminum foil in half widthwise to form rectangles!. Using the tip of a small knife, make holes in rectangles about 2 in!. apart and widen each hole to the size of a dime!. Grease foil with olive oil; set over direct heat for 2 minutes!.

Brush salmon skins with oil!. Set 2 fillets, skin side down, on each foil rectangle!. Cover grill (if using charcoal, open vents on lid) and cook fish until skin is light brown and really sizzling, 5 to 6 minutes!. Using tongs, slide foil to indirect heat, cover, and cook until all but top 1/4 in!. is cooked, 3 to 8 minutes!. Slide fish back over direct heat, cover, and cook until fish is cooked through (cut to test) and skin is browned and crisp, about 3 minutes!.

Transfer foil with salmon to a rimless baking sheet and, sliding an offset cake spatula or other thin spatula between salmon skin and foil, very gently free fish from foil!. Season each fillet with salt and a few drops of juice from a remaining lemon!. Serve with cucumber salad!. Makes 4 servings
