Method

Preparing the Salmon

  1. 1

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 400°F (200°C).

  2. 2

    Season the Salmon

    Rub each salmon fillet with olive oil, then season with salt and black pepper to taste. Let them sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes.

Cooking the Vegetables

  1. 3

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash and trim the asparagus. Peel and slice the carrots into thin strips. Remove the seeds from the bell pepper and cut it into slices.

  2. 4

    Grill the Vegetables

    Place the prepared vegetables on the grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until they are tender and slightly charred.

Making the Lemon Butter Sauce

  1. 5

    Melt the Butter

    In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the stick of unsalted butter.

  2. 6

    Add Lemon Juice and Garlic

    Once the butter is melted, add the lemon juice and minced garlic. Cook for about 2 minutes, stirring constantly until the garlic is fragrant.

  3. 7

    Finish the Sauce

    Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the chopped parsley. Set aside.

Grilling the Salmon

  1. 8

    Grill the Salmon

    Place the seasoned salmon fillets on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.

Serving the Dish

  1. 9

    Plating

    Arrange the grilled salmon on plates alongside the grilled seasonal vegetables. Drizzle the lemon butter sauce over the salmon.

  2. 10

    Garnish

    Add extra chopped parsley on top for garnish if desired. Serve immediately.
