Grilled Salmon With Red Wine Bbq Sauce Hazelnut Butter And Cracked Wheat Salad With Grilled Vegetables Recipes

GRILLED SALMON WITH BBQ SAUCE

Steps:

• Mix all the ingredients listed above (except salmon) in a medium-sized bowl.
• Preheat your grill to medium heat.
• Use a brush to apply a thick coating of the bbq sauce to each salmon filet. Note: Be sure to check your salmon if you use a brush with bristles. Sometimes the bristles come out and you end up with bristles in your meal. I hate it when I find bristles in my food! Use a silicone basting brush as opposed to one with bristles to avoid this problem.
• Place a sheet of aluminum foil over the grill grate then add the filets to the grill. Close the grill cover.
• Cook salmon on your grill at medium heat for approximately 12 to 15 minutes. For food safety purposes, make sure you grill the salmon to an internal temperature of 145 F.
• Remove the filets when they flake easily with a fork.

GRILLED SALMON IN FOIL WITH HERBY GARLIC BUTTER

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.
