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.

GARLIC-LEMON BUTTER FOR GRILLED SALMON

Steps:

• Soften one stick of butter and mix with garlic.
• Either process in blender or food processor; or if doing by hand use garlic press and whisk really well with fork.

• Quit adding when butter won't absorb any more.
• Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Slather this on grilled salmon during cooking and serve remainder at table.

GRILLED HONEY LEMON BUTTER SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat outdoor grill to medium-high heat. Alternatively, preheat oven to 425F.
• Place salmon on a sheet of foil (with the longer side parallel with the longer side of the sheet pan) with the skin-side down. Raise the edges of the foil up about 2 inches (or enough so that when you pour the buttery mixture over the top it will be contained in the foil).
• Nestle lemon slices underneath the salmon, spaced evenly around the fillet; set aside.
• To a microwave-safe glass measuring cup or bowl, add the butter and heat on high power to melt, about 1 minute.
• Stir in the honey and lemon juice. Pour or spoon about three-quarters of the mixture over the salmon; reserve remainder.
• Evenly season salmon with salt and pepper.
• Seal up the foil. Likely you will need to add another sheet of foil on top in order to seal it. Crimp or pinch the top and bottom pieces of foil together; get it as air-tight as possible but it doesn't have to be perfect.
• If you have time, set aside to marinate for about 10 to 15 minutes (enhanced flavor).
• Place foil pack on the grill and cook for about 7 minutes, or until done.
• Optionally, if you want additional browning on the top of the salmon, set your oven to Hi broil.
• Open the foil pack or remove the top piece of foil so the salmon is exposed but keep the edges raised to contain the buttery mixture.
• Spoon the reserved buttery mixture over the salmon, if desired. Use your judgment and if there's already lots of juice you don't need to add it because you don't want it to start leaking. If you have extra buttery mixture, it's great served over the finished dish.
• Broil salmon for about 5 minutes, or until salmon is as golden as desired. Tip - You don't have to broil on the top rack, you can use the second rack, and while it will take longer, there's less chance of it burning. Keep a close eye on it because all broilers are different and you don't want the salmon to burn. Exact broiling time will depend on the size and thickness of the salmon, climate and oven variances, and personal preference.
• Optionally garnish with parsley and serve immediately.
