Method

Preparing the Salmon

  1. 1

    Marinate the Salmon

    In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F or 190°C to 200°C).

  3. 3

    Grill the Salmon

    Remove the salmon from the marinade and place it skin-side down on the grill. Grill for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.

Preparing the Vegetables

  1. 4

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Slice the zucchini and bell pepper into strips. Trim the asparagus ends.

  2. 5

    Season the Vegetables

    In a bowl, toss the zucchini, bell pepper, and asparagus with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

  3. 6

    Grill the Vegetables

    Place the seasoned vegetables on the grill alongside the salmon. Grill for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are tender and slightly charred.

Serving

  1. 7

    Plate the Dish

    Once the salmon and vegetables are cooked, remove them from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes. Serve the grilled salmon alongside the grilled seasonal vegetables on a plate.

  2. 8

    Garnish

    Optionally, garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or dill for added flavor and presentation.
