Salmon

Method

Salmon Preparation

1

Prepare the salmon

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Brush the salmon fillets with olive oil, and season with salt and black pepper on both sides.

2

Grill the salmon

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

3

Add lemon

Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the grilled salmon just before serving.

Romesco Sauce Preparation

4

Prepare the ingredients

In a blender or food processor, combine the roasted red peppers, tomatoes, garlic cloves, almonds or hazelnuts, olive oil, red wine vinegar, smoked paprika, and salt.

5

Blend the romesco sauce

Blend the mixture until smooth. You may need to scrape down the sides and blend again to ensure everything is well combined.

6

Adjust seasoning

Taste the romesco sauce and adjust seasoning if necessary. If you prefer a thinner consistency, add a little more olive oil or water.
