Who says barbequing has to be limited to burgers, hotdogs, and steak? Here’s a delicious recipe for salmon made entirely on the BBQ while you sit back and enjoy the fabulous weather. Simple, easy to prepare, and oh-so-yummy!
- 4, 3 oz salmon filets, deboned
- 1 lemon, sliced
- 1/4 Cup fresh dill, chopped
- 1 Tbsp whole grain dijon mustard
- 4 Tbsp olive oil
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
1. Heat the BBQ to medium-high heat
2. Place each fresh or frozen salmon filet on a piece of aluminum foil
3. Drizzle with 1 Tbsp of olive oil
4. Add a small squirt of Dijon mustard (1/4 Tbsp), pepper to taste, 1/4 of the fresh dill, and a few slice of lemon
5. Wrap with the aluminum foil, making sure to seal the edges well
6. Add the salmon over direct heat. I prefer my salmon cooked well-done, and this takes only about 5-6 minutes but it would only take around 4-5 minutes for medium. Feel free to open up the aluminum foil to check on the doneness!
