Ingredients:

1 (8-ounce) carton plain low-fat yogurt

1/2 cup diced seeded peeled cucumber

1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill

2 teaspoons prepared horseradish

2 teaspoons stone-ground mustard

1 teaspoon honey

1 (2-pound) salmon fillet (2 inches thick)

cooking spray

1 teaspoon dark sesame oil

1/2 teaspoon low-sodium soy sauce

8 green onion tops, split lengthwise

Directions:

1. Spoon yogurt onto several layers of heavy-duty paper towels; spread to 1/2-inch thickness. Cover with additional paper towels, and let stand 5 minutes. Scrape into a bowl using a rubber spatula. Combine the yogurt, cucumber, and the next 4 ingredients (cucumber through honey); cover and refrigerate.

3. Place fillet on a jelly-roll pan coated with cooking spray. Brush fillet with oil and soy sauce. Bring water to a boil in a medium saucepan; add onion strips. Cook 10 seconds or until limp. Drain. Arrange onion strips over fillet. Bake at 425° for 20 minutes or until fillet flakes easily when tested with a fork. Serve with yogurt sauce.
