Main Ingredients

Lemon Butter Sauce

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Salmon

    Rinse the salmon fillets under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel. Brush both sides of the fillets with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Make the Lemon Butter Sauce

    In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in the lemon juice and chopped fresh parsley. Remove from heat and set aside.

Grilling

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

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

  2. 4

    Grill the Salmon

    Place the seasoned salmon fillets on the grill, skin-side down. Grill for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and has nice grill marks.

  3. 5

    Serve

    Once cooked, remove the salmon from the grill and drizzle with the prepared lemon butter sauce before serving. Garnish with additional fresh parsley if desired.
