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.

Provided by Sally

Categories     Dinner

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/3 cup (5 Tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup (90g) honey
1 - 2 garlic cloves, minced (I use 2)
1 teaspoon ground chipotle chili pepper*
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 individual salmon fillets (or a large 2 lb. (900g) fillet)

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk everything together (except for the salmon of course). Place the salmon in a tupperware, baking dish, or zipped-top bag. Pour half of the marinade on top. Give everything a nice shake. Reserve the rest for step 4. Marinate for at least 15 minutes or up to 8 hours.
  • Meanwhile, fire up the grill to medium-high heat or preheat oven to 375°F (191°C).
  • You can grill the salmon on foil or on a cedar plank. Grill the salmon skin side down for 15 minutes- about 10 minutes per 1-inch inch thickness measured from the thickest part of the fillet or until the thickest part reaches 145°F (63°C) internal heat.
  • Or bake the salmon on a lined baking sheet for 15-20 minutes depending on thickness and until the thickest part reaches 145°F (63°C) internal heat.
  • Brush the warm salmon with remaining marinade before serving. Leftovers keep well in the refrigerator for a few days. Reheat to your liking.

GRILLED SALMON WITH HERB AND MEYER LEMON COMPOUND BUTTER



Grilled Salmon with Herb and Meyer Lemon Compound Butter image

Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 stick butter, room temperature
2 Meyer lemons, zested
1/2 bunch dill, finely chopped
1/2 bunch thyme, picked and finely chopped (lemon thyme is even better)
1 small clove garlic, smashed and finely chopped
Kosher salt
4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets, skin-on
Extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine the butter, zest, herbs and garlic. Mix until everything is well mixed. Season, to taste, with salt. If using right away, keep the butter at room temperature. If making ahead, reserve in the refrigerator and bring to room temperature before using.
  • Preheat grill to medium.
  • Remove the salmon from the refrigerator and let come to room temperature. Season with salt and coat with olive oil. Brush and oil the grill. Place the salmon, skin side down, on the clean, preheated grill. After 2 to 3 minutes, rotate the salmon 90 degrees to create cross-hatch grill marks on the salmon skin. Cook the salmon for another 3 to 4 minutes. As the salmon cooks it will turn from translucent orange to opaque pink.
  • Turn the salmon over and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes. If the salmon starts to burn, or the flames flare up move the fish to a cooler part of the grill.* Remove from the grill and top with the room temperature compound butter. The butter should act as a sauce and melt over and coat the grilled salmon.
  • What a delish fish!
  • *Tip: It is a general rule to cook fish for 8 minutes per inch of thickness. I like salmon cooked to about medium, so I cook mine for a little less.
