Preheat grill to medium high heat and oil the grill grates. While the grill heats, combine all of the spices for the salmon and use a mortar and pestle or the palms of your hands to crush them. Sprinkle evenly over the salmon. Place the salmon flesh side down on the grill and cook for 3-5 minutes per side depending on the thickness. Remove from the grill and rest for several minutes before removing the skin and flaking them apart with a fork.
In a small bowl combine all of the ingredients for the dressing and whisk together until smooth. Taste for seasoning then refrigerate until ready to serve.
In a medium sized bowl whisk together the red wine vinegar, olive oil, oregano, dill, salt and pepper. Add in the diced cucumber, cherry tomatoes and red onion. Toss to combine.
On a large platter or in a serving bowl add the romaine lettuce. Top the lettuce with the cucumber mixture, olives, feta and salmon. Serve with the dressing on the side.
