Fish & Seafood Fish Salmon Healthy Grilled Salmon Recipes Grilled Salmon & Cucumber, Fresh Herb & Feta Salad Be the first to rate & review! Grilled salmon always plays well with a fresh, bright summertime salad. The tender, flaky salmon counters the crunchy cucumber salad while the rich fillet balances the saltiness of feta and the tang of the salad dressing. Serve the salmon warm or cold (your choice!) and pair the meal with a slice of crusty bread and a glass of wine.
