Description
A delightful dish featuring tender and flaky salmon infused with zesty lemon and aromatic herbs, accompanied by vibrant summer vegetables.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (about 2 lemons)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 4 cups mixed summer vegetables (zucchini, bell peppers, and corn)
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1/4 cup fresh dill (chopped)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix together the fresh lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper to prepare the marinade.
- Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag and pour half of the marinade over them. Let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Wash and chop the summer vegetables, then combine them with the remaining marinade in a large bowl.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Grill the vegetables for about 5-7 minutes until tender, then set aside.
- Grill the marinated salmon fillets skin-side down for about 4-6 minutes on each side until cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Notes
- Use skinless salmon fillets for a lighter option.
- Swap olive oil for avocado oil for a different flavor.
- Try different herbs like basil or thyme for a unique twist.
- For a vegan option, replace salmon with marinated tofu.
