Garlic Butter Salmon
Ingredients
- 1 lb Salmon
- Salt & Pepper To Taste
- 1 tbsp Olive Oil
- 4 tbsp Butter Divided
- 1/2 tbsp Fresh Lemon Juice
- 4-5 clove Garlic Minced
- 1 tbsp Fresh Parsley Chopped
Instructions
- First things first, season that salmon with salt and pepper. We want every bite to be fire!
- Get your grill nice and hot. We’re talkin’ about that smokin’ temperature that’s gonna give our salmon a perfect sear.
- Add extra olive oil over the salmon pieces.
- Once your grill is ready, place the salmon on there and let it cook for about 3-4 minutes per side. We’re lookin’ for that beautiful golden crust.
- While the salmon is grilling, let’s work on our garlic butter magic. In a pan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Toss in the minced garlic and sauté until it’s fragrant and golden. >br
- Now, squeeze in that fresh lemon juice. We want that citrusy brightness to cut through the richness of the butter.
- Drop in the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, and let it melt into this glorious garlic butter sauce.
- Once the salmon is perfectly grilled on both sides, transfer it to a serving platter.
- Pour the garlic butter sauce all over the salmon.
- Sprinkle that fresh chopped parsley on top for a burst of color and freshness. It’s the finishing touch that takes this dish to the next level.

Made this last night and let me tell you, you know what you doin. I love salmon on the grill. This was grilled to perfection. The garlic butter was a mastermind and set it off. I paired it with your mashed potatoes and I grilled some asparagus. My family love it. Chef’s kiss. Thank you A.B.🤌🏾💯🔥
