Method

Preparation of Salmon

1
Prepare the Salmon
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Season the salmon fillets 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, then flip and grill for an additional 4-6 minutes until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Preparation of Asparagus

3
Prepare the Asparagus
Wash the asparagus and trim the tough ends. Toss them lightly with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
4
Grill the Asparagus
Place the asparagus on the grill alongside the salmon. Grill for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until they are tender and have grill marks.

Preparation of Lemon Butter Sauce

5
Melt the Butter
In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
6
Add Garlic and Lemon Juice
Once the butter is melted, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Then stir in the lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and chopped parsley.
7
Simmer the Sauce
Let the sauce simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes while stirring occasionally.

Serving

8
Plate the Dish
On a serving platter, place the grilled salmon fillets and arrange the grilled asparagus beside them. Drizzle the lemon butter sauce over the salmon and asparagus.
9
Garnish and Serve
Garnish with additional parsley if desired and serve immediately.
