Salmon

Garlic Lemon Sauce

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Salmon

    Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel. Place them on a plate and drizzle with 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Make the Garlic Lemon Sauce

    In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, and chopped parsley. Mix well and set aside.

Grilling

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

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

  2. 4

    Grill the Salmon

    Place the seasoned salmon fillets on the grill. Grill for 6-8 minutes on one side without moving, until the salmon is easily released from the grill and has nice grill marks. Flip the fillets and grill for an additional 4-6 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.

Serving

  1. 5

    Serve with Sauce

    Once grilled, transfer the salmon fillets to a serving plate. Drizzle the garlic lemon sauce over the top of each fillet and serve immediately.
