1 lb. salmon fillets (4-oz. each)

Grilled Salmon Salad with Creamy Cilantro Dressing

Directions

Heat grill or grill pan to medium. Brush salmon fillets with 1 tablespoon oil and season with salt and pepper. Place salmon skin-side up on grill. Cook until salmon has grill marks, 2 to 3 minutes, then turn and continue grilling until cooked through, another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from grill and let cool slightly.
In a blender or food processor, combine cilantro, 3 green onions, Greek yogurt, vinegar and remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Season with salt and pepper. Blend until smooth.
Chop remaining green onion. To a large serving bowl, add green onion and chopped lettuce. Season with salt and pepper. Toss cilantro dressing with salad. Top with salmon, breaking up into pieces if desired.
