Main Ingredients

Seasonal Vegetables

Lemon Butter Sauce

Method

Preparing the Salmon

  1. 1

    Season the Salmon

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

  2. 2

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, ensuring it's hot enough to sear the salmon.

  3. 3

    Grill the Salmon

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

Cooking the Vegetables

  1. 4

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash and trim the asparagus, halve the cherry tomatoes, and slice the zucchini into rounds.

  2. 5

    Grill the Vegetables

    Using a grill basket or skewers, grill the asparagus, cherry tomatoes, and zucchini on the same grill for about 4-5 minutes, turning occasionally until tender and slightly charred.

Making the Lemon Butter Sauce

  1. 6

    Melt the Butter

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

  2. 7

    Add Garlic

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

  3. 8

    Finish the Sauce

    Stir in the fresh lemon juice and chopped parsley. Cook for an additional minute, then remove from heat.

Serving

  1. 9

    Plate the Dish

    On a serving plate, place a grilled salmon fillet, add a portion of grilled seasonal vegetables, and drizzle with the lemon butter sauce.

  2. 10

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish with additional parsley if desired and serve immediately.
