Lay a large sheet of plastic wrap on your kitchen counter.
Spread the smoked salmon slices over the plastic wrap in an even rectangular layer, slightly overlapping the edges.
In a medium bowl, mix the cream cheese with the fresh dill, lemon juice, and black pepper until smooth and well combined.
Peel the cucumber and slice it into thin strips or ribbons using a vegetable peeler.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the layer of smoked salmon, leaving a 1-inch border around the edges.
Place the cucumber slices in a single layer at one of the shorter ends of the salmon rectangle.
Using the plastic wrap to guide you, carefully roll the smoked salmon into a tight log, starting from the end with the cucumber slices.
Once rolled, wrap the log tightly in the plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up.
After chilling, remove the plastic wrap and slice the roll into 1-inch pieces using a sharp knife.
Garnish each roll with chopped chives and serve immediately.
