Barbecued salmon with lemon and herbs recipe


The Hummus Recipes Kitchen (The home of Hummus Recipes & Delicious Middle Eastern Recipes) invites you to try Barbecued salmon with lemon and herbs Recipe. Enjoy Christmas Mains and learn how to make Barbecued salmon with lemon and herbs.

Whether you're having a weekend barbie, or planning a more casual Christmas, this salmon recipe could not be simpler. 

Ingredients (serves 12)

1/2 cup olive oil
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 lemons, juiced
2 tablespoons small capers, drained, chopped
1/3 cup dill leaves, finely chopped
1 bunch lemon thyme, roughly chopped
sea salt
12 x 180g atlantic salmon fillets, skin on
lemon wedges, to serve

Method

Combine oil, garlic, 1/3 cup lemon juice, capers, dill and lemon thyme in a large jug. Season with sea salt and pepper. Place salmon, in a single layer, in a large ceramic dish. Pour over half the marinade. Turn salmon over and pour over remaining marinade. Cover. Refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours to marinate. Remove from fridge 30 minutes before cooking.

Preheat a greased barbecue plate on medium-high heat. Barbecue salmon, skin side up, for 3 minutes. Turn and barbecue, brushing occasionally with marinade, for 4 to 6 minutes (depending on thickness) or until just cooked through. Serve with lemon wedges.

Notes

Tip: You can replace the salmon with ocean trout. Compare the prices - often one is cheaper than the other.
