Cucumber Dill Sauce and Seafood
I originally made this sauce for grilled salmon, but soon realized it was the perfect accompanianment for any type of seafood, especially grilled fish. Maybe it's the cool with the hot that tastes so good, or it could be the contrasting textures. Whatever it is, it's just right with Grilled Yellowfin Tuna!
The Cucumber Dill Sauce is quick & easy and takes only minutes to prepare in the food processor. It lasts for a few days when kept refrigerated, so you can make it ahead and have it again later in the week. I make it with lemon yogurt and light mayo, not just to cut down on fat and calories, but the lemon yogurt gives it such a nice flavor.
