Grilled Salmon with Lemon Butter

Ingredients

• •4 salmon fillets, skin-on
• •3 tbsp butter
• •1 lemon, zested and juiced
• •2 cloves garlic, minced
• •1 tbsp fresh dill
• •Salt to taste
• •Pepper to taste

Steps

1. 1.Pat the salmon fillets completely dry and season with salt and pepper - any surface moisture is what keeps the skin from crisping.
2. 2.Place the fillets skin-side down on the grill or in a hot pan and cook undisturbed for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crisp and releases easily, then flip and cook 2-3 minutes more until just cooked through.
3. 3.Melt the butter with garlic in a small saucepan, then stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice, and dill.
4. 4.Spoon the lemon butter sauce over the salmon just before serving, keeping the crisp skin out of the sauce so it stays crackly.
