Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 pounds salmon, skinned and deboned
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 lemon
½ tablespoon chopped fresh dill, or more to taste
½ tablespoon garlic powder, or more to taste
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
  • Rub salmon down in olive oil. Cut your lemon in half and set 1 half off to the side. Cut the other half into 1/4-inch thick slices. Lay them on a broiler pan and lay the salmon on top of them. You just need enough to cover the bottom of the salmon so it's not touching the pan. Sprinkle with dill, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Lightly squeeze the remainder of the lemon over the whole salmon; not too much, you don't want your seasoning to run off.
  • Cook in the center of the preheated oven on a low broil until easily flaked with a fork but still juicy, 15 to 20 minutes.

GRILLED SALMON IN FOIL WITH HERBY GARLIC BUTTER



Grilled Salmon in Foil With Herby Garlic Butter image

This easy grilled salmon in foil recipe is totally foolproof, resulting in flaky fish with a garlic-herb butter sauce. And did we mention cleanup is a breeze?

Provided by Rachel Gurjar

Time 36m

Yield 2 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 Tbsp. honey
1½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1 tsp. Morton kosher salt
1 tsp. finely grated lemon zest
6 garlic cloves, finely chopped
4 Tbsp. unsalted butter, room temperature
2 Tbsp. finely chopped dill, plus more for serving
1 (1 lb.) boneless salmon fillet, preferably skin-on
4 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice, divided

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for medium heat. Whisk 1 Tbsp. honey, 1½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1 tsp. Morton kosher salt, and 1 tsp. finely grated lemon zest in a small bowl to combine. Add 6 garlic cloves, finely chopped, 4 Tbsp. unsalted butter, room temperature, and 2 Tbsp. finely chopped dill and whisk again to combine (some lemon zest may remain separate and that's okay).
  • Tear off a large piece of foil according to the length and thickness of salmon (15x15" or larger) and place on a rimmed baking sheet. Place one 1 lb. boneless salmon fillet, preferably skin-on, arranging skin side down if skin is on, in center of foil (the skin will stick slightly to foil and brown while the fish cooks; you want this as it will add to the sauce). Spread garlic butter over fish, then drizzle 3 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice on top. Carefully fold one side of foil up and over fish so lemon juice stays contained, then bring other sides up to meet it and fold together to seal, leaving about a 4" opening on top for steam to escape (this will help sauce reduce a bit).
  • Place foil packet on grate and grill fish until opaque throughout and firm, 16-20 minutes. Transfer packet to a cutting board and let fish rest 5 minutes.
  • Carefully open foil packet and cut fish in half. Transfer to plates; pour juices from packet over. Drizzle fish with remaining 1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice, dividing evenly, and top with more finely chopped dill.

1/4 cup dry white wine
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
6 tablespoons cold butter

Steps:

Tips:

  • Select high-quality salmon: Choose wild-caught salmon whenever possible, as it has a lower fat content and a more intense flavor compared to farm-raised salmon.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like dill and parsley add a burst of flavor to the salmon and the sauce. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use half the amount.
  • Don't overcook the salmon: Salmon is a delicate fish that cooks quickly. Overcooking can result in dry, flaky salmon. Cook the salmon until it is just opaque in the center, about 6-8 minutes per inch of thickness.
  • Make sure the sauce is hot: The lemon-dill sauce should be served hot over the salmon. You can reheat the sauce in a saucepan over low heat or in the microwave.

Conclusion:

Broiled salmon with lemon-dill sauce is a simple yet flavorful dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is easy to prepare and can be on the table in under 30 minutes. The salmon is tender and flaky, while the sauce is creamy and tangy. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
