Salmon

White Wine Citrus Butter Sauce

Rice Pilaf

Method

Preparing the Salmon

  1. 1

    Marinate the Salmon

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Add the salmon fillets and coat them evenly with the marinade. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Salmon

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the marinated salmon fillets on the grill, skin-side down. Grill for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Making the White Wine Citrus Butter Sauce

  1. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

  2. 4

    Add Wine and Citrus Juices

    Pour in the white wine, fresh orange juice, and fresh lemon juice. Bring to a simmer and let it reduce for about 5 minutes.

  3. 5

    Finish the Sauce

    Remove from heat and stir in the chopped parsley. Keep warm until ready to serve.

Cooking the Rice Pilaf

  1. 6

    Sauté Onion

    In a pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add finely chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  2. 7

    Cook the Rice

    Add the long-grain rice to the pot and stir for 1-2 minutes until the rice is lightly toasted. Then add chicken or vegetable broth, salt, and black pepper.

  3. 8

    Simmer the Rice

    Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 18-20 minutes or until the rice is cooked and liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork before serving.
