Grilled Basil Salmon Steaks image

I've had this recipe in my file for so long I don't know where it came from. I do know that it is wonderful especially with really fresh salmon. My oldest son brings one home from time to time. There just isn't anything better!

This recipe was a disaster. The salmon was overcooked and the basil butter was too salty.

The salmon was a bit bland for my taste, but the basil butter was delicious. I would try this recipe again, but I would add some more seasoning to the salmon.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and the salmon is always cooked perfectly. I've also tried it with other types of fish, like trout and tilapia, and it works just as well.

Followed the recipe exactly and the salmon came out dry and overcooked. The basil butter didn't do much to save it.
