2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh basil, plus some sprigs, for garnish
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh chives
1 teaspoon chopped fresh tarragon, plus some sprigs, for garnish
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Four 4-ounce skinless salmon fillets, each about 1 inch thick

1 cucumber, peeled, seeded, and diced 1/2 cup chopped onions
4 to 5 tablespoons mayonnaise, or enough to moisten 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, optional

Grilled Salmon Directions
Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill.
Whisk the oil, chopped basil, chives, chopped tarra-gon, salt and pepper in a small bowl to blend. Brush the salmon and pineapple slices with the herb mixture.
Cook the salmon until barely cooked through and still pink inside, about 4 minutes per side. Cook the pineapple until slightly charred, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
Salad Directions
In a large bowl, gently toss together the salmon and crushed hard-boiled eggs.
In another bowl, combine bell pepper, cucumber, onion, and mayonnaise.
Add seasonings and stir to combine.
Pour mixture over salmon, add lemon juice, and toss lightly to combine. Serve over lettuce or as a sandwich.
