Method

Preparing the Salmon

  1. 1

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Season the Salmon

    Rub each salmon fillet with olive oil, then season with salt and black pepper on both sides.

  3. 3

    Grill the Salmon

    Place the salmon fillets on the grill skin-side down. Grill for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.

Making the Lemon Butter Sauce

  1. 4

    Melt the Butter

    In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter.

  2. 5

    Add Flavorings

    Add minced garlic to the melted butter and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

  3. 6

    Incorporate Lemon

    Stir in the lemon juice and lemon zest. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  4. 7

    Finish the Sauce

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

Preparing Seasonal Vegetables

  1. 8

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash and trim the asparagus, and peel and slice the carrots.

  2. 9

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the asparagus and carrots, and season with salt and pepper. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
