Salmon

Seasonal Vegetables

Method

Preparing the Salmon

  1. 1

    Marinate the Salmon

    In a shallow dish, combine olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Add the salmon fillets and turn to coat. Let marinate for 15-30 minutes at room temperature.

  2. 2

    Preheat Grill

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

  3. 3

    Grill the Salmon

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

Preparing the Vegetables

  1. 4

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash the asparagus, bell peppers, and zucchini. Cut the bell peppers into strips and the zucchini into rounds.

  2. 5

    Grill the Vegetables

    On the same grill, place the prepared vegetables. Grill for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until tender and slightly charred.

Making the Lemon Butter Sauce

  1. 6

    Melt the Butter

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

  2. 7

    Add Lemon and Garlic

    Once the butter is melted, add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Stir in fresh lemon juice and cook for an additional minute.

  3. 8

    Finish the Sauce

    Remove the sauce from heat and stir in chopped parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Serving

  1. 9

    Plate the Dish

    On a serving plate, place a grilled salmon fillet alongside a portion of grilled seasonal vegetables. Drizzle the lemon butter sauce over the salmon and vegetables.

  2. 10

    Garnish

    Garnish with additional lemon wedges and parsley if desired.
