Ingredients:
1 1/2 teaspoon(s) olive oil, plus more for greasing |
1 (1/2-pound) skin-on boneless salmon fillet |
salt and pepper to taste |
1 cup(s) low-fat cottage cheese |
3 tablespoon(s) lemon juice |
1 to 2 teaspoon(s) prepared horseradish (optional) |
3 tablespoon(s) chopped chives, divided |
1/2 fennel bulb, cored and very thinly sliced plus 2 tablespoons chopped fennel fronds |
Directions:
1. Grease grill grates with oil then preheat grill to medium heat. Brush salmon all over with oil then season with salt and pepper. Arrange salmon on grill, skin-side up, and cook, gently flipping once, until golden brown and just cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes total. Set aside to let cool then remove and discard skin.
2. Put cottage cheese, lemon juice and horseradish (if using) into a food processor and purée until smooth; transfer mixture to a large bowl. Flake salmon into small pieces and add to cottage cheese mixture along with 2 tablespoons of the chives and fennel bulb and fronds. Fold gently to combine then garnish with remaining 1 tablespoon chives and serve.
