GRILLED SALMON WITH HERB AND MEYER LEMON COMPOUND BUTTER
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.

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.

Tips:
- Choose the right salmon fillet: Look for a thick, center-cut fillet that is about 1 inch thick. This will ensure that the salmon cooks evenly and remains moist.
- Marinate the salmon: Marinating the salmon in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, herbs, and spices will help to infuse it with flavor and keep it moist during grilling.
- Preheat the grill: Preheat the grill to medium-high heat before cooking the salmon. This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the fish while keeping the inside moist.
- Cook the salmon over direct heat: Cook the salmon over direct heat for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the fish is cooked through. Be careful not to overcook the salmon, as it will become dry and tough.
- Use a herbed butter sauce: A herbed butter sauce is a great way to add flavor and moisture to grilled salmon. Simply melt some butter in a saucepan and stir in your favorite herbs, such as parsley, cilantro, or dill.
Conclusion:
Grilled salmon with herbed butter sauce is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. With its simple ingredients and easy preparation, this dish is sure to become a family favorite. Serve with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
