This zingy side dish—with cucumber, radishes and sweet onion tossed in a ginger-honey vinaigrette—is just as delicious served alongside steak, pork or chicken as it is with glazed salmon.
Ingredients

- Kosher salt and pepper
- 1 seedless cucumber

- In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce and the remaining Tbsp honey.
- Line a broilerproof baking sheet with foil. Place the salmon on the baking sheet and season with 1/4 tsp each salt and pepper. Broil for 5 minutes. Spoon the soy sauce mixture over the salmon and broil until the salmon is opaque throughout, 2 to 5 minutes more. Serve the salmon with any pan drippings and the cucumber salad.
