Lemon Herb Grilled Salmon with Asparagus
Bright lemon, fresh herbs and smoky grill marks — salmon and asparagus cook side by side in under 15 minutes.
Ingredients
- 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
- 1 lb asparagus, trimmed
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp lemon zest
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
- 1 lemon, cut into wedges
Steps
- Heat the grill to medium-high and oil the grates well.
- Whisk the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, lemon zest, oregano, salt and pepper.
- Brush the salmon and asparagus with the lemon-herb oil.
- Grill the salmon skin-side down 4-5 minutes, until it releases easily, then flip and grill 3-4 minutes more.
- Grill the asparagus alongside, turning once, until tender-crisp, about 6 minutes.
- Serve with lemon wedges and a scatter of fresh dill.
Serve with: quinoa or a simple green salad.
Let the grill get properly hot before the salmon goes on; a hot grate is what keeps the fish from sticking.
