Grilled Salmon With Cucumber-Yogurt Salad image

Make this recipe year-round by broiling the salmon instead of grilling it. Preheat the broiler and place a rack about 6 inched from the heat source. Broil the fish fro about 15 minutes, flipping over once. It should be lightly browned on both sides and should flake with a fork.
