Grilled Salmon Recipe with Garlic Lime Butter image

Grilled Salmon with Garlic Lime Butter and eat like you're on vacation! Go-To Grilled Salmon recipe - easy, flaky and so juicy!

Provided by Natasha Kravchuk

Categories     Easy

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup unsalted butter ((8 Tbsp))
4 cloves garlic (smashed (NOT PRESSED))
2 Tbsp lime juice ((from 1 lime)plus lime wedges to serve)
2 Tbsp dill (chopped, plus more to garnish)
1 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
2 lbs salmon filet (skin-on, cut into 6 portions)

Steps:

  • In a sauce pan, melt 1/2 cup butter over medium heat. Smash 4 garlic cloves with the flat side of a knife and add to saucepan with 1 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper. Simmer 1 min or until fragrant. Add chopped dill and 2 Tbsp lime juice then immediately remove from heat.
  • Arrange salmon fillets on a platter skin-side-down and spoon on 1/3 of butter sauce and brush over the tops. Let salmon marinate while preheating grill.
  • Preheat grill to medium heat (350˚F to 400˚F). Oil the hot grates. Place salmon onto preheated grill, skin-side-up. Cover and grill over medium (350˚F) heat undisturbed, about 3 minutes on the first side.
  • Carefully flip salmon over (it helps to have a spatula to loosen it and tongs to flip it over), brush on 1/3 of butter sauce then cover and cook another 2 minutes (or according to salmon grilling chart), until internal temperature reaches 140˚F (the temperature will continue to rise to an ideal 145˚F internal temperature off the grill).
  • Transfer salmon to a platter and drizzle with remaining 1/3 of sauce in saucepan (if butter has hardened, heat on the stovetop just until melted). Garnish with fresh dill and serve with lime wedges to squeeze over salmon.

Two 6-ounce fillets salmon
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Categories     main-dish

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 pound butter
1 to 2 lemons, juiced
4 to 5 garlic cloves, crushed
1 bunch cilantro, stems removed and chopped
3 green onions, thinly sliced
1 (4 to 5 pound) salmon fillet

Steps:

  • Melt the butter and squeeze in lemon juice and add crushed garlic, cilantro and green onions and mix well. Place salmon fillet on a piece of aluminum foil that is large enough to completely wrap and seal the fillet. After placing the salmon on the foil, brush or pour the butter mixture on the salmon. Seal the salmon in foil. Place on the barbecue grill and cook for 10 to 12 minutes per side. Any longer will dry out the salmon. Cut in portions and serve immediately.
  • Fish can also be cooked in a preheated 350-degree F oven for 35 to 40 minutes.

BAKED SALMON WITH GARLIC LIME BUTTER

Provided by Stella

Categories     Entrees     Main Course

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1.5 lbs wild salmon
olive oil
salt + pepper (to taste)
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
2 cloves garlic, (crushed)
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 cup butter, (melted (or olive oil))

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 425 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Divide your salmon into 4 filets. Pat them dry and then drizzle them with olive oil - brush it all over. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Bake for 17 minutes or until internal temperature reads 145 F.
  • You can use a blender to puree the lime juice, garlic, salt and pepper. Then slowly add the melted butter in with the motor running, and blend until it thickens - 15 to 30 seconds. (I simply whisked the lime juice, garlic, salt and pepper until combined. I used a frother to blend in the butter).

ROASTED SALMON WITH GINGER-LIME BUTTER



Roasted Salmon With Ginger-Lime Butter image

Wild Pacific salmon is available in spring and summer, and the flavor is phenomenal. It definitely tastes better than farmed salmon and is always a better choice, sustainably speaking. Though it is expensive, think of it as a seasonal treat. Whether you choose wild king salmon, coho or sockeye, take care not to overcook it.

Provided by David Tanis

Categories     dinner, weeknight, seafood, main course

Time 25m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (1 1/2 pound) wild salmon fillet, such as king or coho, at room temperature
Salt and pepper
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
2 tablespoons grated ginger
1 teaspoon lime zest
1 teaspoon lemon zest
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 pound baby spinach
Lime wedges, for serving
1/2 cup thinly sliced scallions, green and white parts

Steps:

  • Lay the salmon on a rimmed baking sheet, and season with salt and pepper. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Make the ginger-lime butter: In a small bowl, combine softened butter, ginger, lime zest, lemon zest and lime juice. Add salt and pepper to taste, and stir well to combine.
  • Transfer salmon, uncovered, to the oven to cook for about 8 minutes. Check the salmon once or twice as it cooks. Depending on the thickness of the fish, it should be fully cooked when little white juices appear on the surface - moist and yielding with big flakes when probed. It may take 10 minutes for thick fillets.
  • As the salmon cooks, put 2 tablespoons ginger-lime butter in a wide deep skillet or large pot over medium heat. When butter is melted, add spinach and a pinch of salt. Put on the lid and turn heat to medium-high. (You may need to add the spinach in batches.) After 2 minutes, remove lid and stir spinach to help it wilt. When all spinach is wilted, turn off the heat.
  • Transfer salmon to a platter or divide among individual plates. Smear the remaining ginger-lime butter on the fish. Surround with wilted spinach and lime wedges, and top with scallions.

GRILLED SALMON WITH LIME BUTTER SAUCE



Grilled Salmon with Lime Butter Sauce image

Provided by Ian Knauer

Categories     Fish     Quick & Easy     Lime     Salmon     Summer     Grill/Barbecue     Gourmet

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

6 (6-oz) pieces center-cut salmon fillet (about 1 inch thick) with skin
1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated fresh lime zest
6 tablespoons lime butter sauce

Steps:

  • Prepare grill for cooking over medium-hot charcoal (moderate heat for gas).
  • Season salmon all over with salt and pepper, then grill, flesh sides down, on lightly oiled grill rack (covered only if using gas grill) 4 minutes. Turn fillets over and grill (covered only if using gas grill) until just cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes more. Sprinkle fillets with zest and top each with 1 tablespoon lime butter sauce.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality salmon fillets. Look for fillets that are firm to the touch and have a bright pink color. Avoid fillets that have any brown or gray spots.
  • Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel before cooking. This will help to prevent the salmon from sticking to the pan.
  • Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper, or your favorite herbs and spices. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a drizzle of olive oil to the fillets before cooking.
  • Cook the salmon fillets over medium heat. If you cook the salmon over too high of heat, it will likely overcook and become dry. Cook the salmon until it is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  • To make the lime-herb butter, combine softened butter, chopped fresh herbs, lime zest, and a squeeze of lime juice. You can also add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve the salmon fillets immediately with the lime-herb butter. You can also garnish the salmon with fresh herbs or lemon wedges.

Conclusion:

This salmon with lime-herb butter is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the lime-herb butter adds a bright and flavorful touch. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
