Recipe Introduction


Serve these simple and stylish salmon steaks with a crisp salad and fresh crusty bread.






List of Ingredients



• 5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  
• 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  
• 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
  
• 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh basil
  
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
  
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  
• Four 6-ounce (180 g) uncooked salmon steaks
  
• Lemon wedges, for serving
  






Instructions



1. Mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, parsley, basil, salt, and pepper in a bowl until well combined. Marinate the salmon steaks in the mixture, covered, in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
   
   
2. Cook the salmon on a hot grill for 3 minutes on each side, brushing with the marinade. Serve the salmon with lemon wedges for squeezing.
   
   






Final Comments


Servings: 4

Variation: Use other firm-fleshed fish such as tuna or swordfish in place of the salmon.

Tip: Make sure the cooking surface is really hot so the fish can sear quickly and seal in the juices to keep it deliciously moist on the inside.
