Steps:
- Place salmon in a shallow dish, and rub with 3 tablespoons lemon juice. Season with dill weed and lemon pepper. Cover, and allow to stand 10 to 15 minutes.
- Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a saucepan over medium heat, and saute shallot 2 minutes, until tender. Mix in remaining lemon juice, vinegar, and 1/4 cup wine. Simmer until reduced by at least 1/2. Stir in cream and milk. Season with dill, parsley, thyme, salt, and white pepper. Cook and stir until thickened. Whisk in 1/4 cup butter. Set aside and keep warm.
- Heat remaining 1/4 cup butter in a skillet over medium heat. Place salmon in the skillet, skin side up, and cook 1 to 2 minutes, until seared. Set salmon aside. Deglaze the skillet with remaining 1 tablespoon wine, then mix in the cream sauce. Return salmon to the skillet, and cook 8 minutes in the sauce, or until easily flaked with a fork. Serve with the sauce.

GRILLED SALMON WITH LEMON-BUTTER SAUCE RECIPE | CHEFDEHOME.COM
This is one classic recipe from my every-day-recipe file. Grilled Salmon with Lemon-Butter Sauce is one of our favorite way to enjoy salmon for dinner. Perfectly grilled salmon (details ahead), moist and flaky with silky heavenly lemon and butter sauce. Today, I served it with grilled cauliflower steaks and charred lemon for an amazing Salmon dinner. Gluten free.
Can you believe sauce needs less than 5 minutes? Salmon already cooks quickly. Really, under 20 minutes..
..and dinner says - I'm ready.
In our home, Vishal is in-charge of grilling. Which works out well over the weekend. But when we have plans to eat grilled Salmon for weeknight dinner.. I even grill it indoor on my cast iron grill pan. Recently, when I made this salmon... I thought, why not I share this idea with you all and also give new life to my old favorite recipe.
Honestly, I'm obsessed with updating my old recipes these days. These are like hidden gems who got no attention. Last week was scrumptious Quinoa Chickpea Salad. This week, my amazing Grilled Salmon with Lemon Butter Sauce. (more on this ahead)
First, take a second and look at this flaky delicious grilled piece of salmon. Mouthwatering! Isn't it?
Grilling salmon has lots of benefits:
1) It results in moist and flaky grilled fish. Almost melt in mouth like buttery.
2) Plus it is quick, simple and easy. For this recipe, I grill salmon just seasoned with salt and black pepper. Works perfect every time.
Indoor in cast-iron pan or outdoor on gas grill, there are few things to note when grilling salmon (as follows). If you follow these, you will never have grill-fish-gone-wrong kinda incidents. No sticking on grill or no fall-apart fish.
To get perfect grilled salmon every time:
1) Pat dry salmon fillets from both sides. Always remember, moisture and grill don't like each other.
2) Rub the pat-dried salmon with coat of oil and also spray/brush oil on grill. I learned this the hard way. I often used to oil the grill but not the fish. Turns out, oiling both (little bit, not a lot) really helps avoid the sticky situation.
3) Always start grilling skin-side down. This crisps up the skin. Also, skin has less chances of sticking than the flesh.
4) Salmon cooks very quickly. Don't move around fish too much. Let grill do it's job on one side. This also ensures good looking grill marks. Once fish is done on one side, you will see bottom part of fish changing color… then, flip with tong or spatula. Again leave undisturbed until cooked to your liking. (second side does not need much time)..
Follow these and I promise a perfect grilled salmon every time. This recipe is so clean and simple you can use it as base for many other salmon recipes. Like, I served it with lemon butter sauce. You can serve with other sauce or marinade you prefer..
My personal favorites are Miso Salmon (flavor BOMB), Maple Chipotle Salmon, and Cedar Plank Salmon.
Oh, and I also have Salmon Burger recipe on blog which uses similar Lemon Sauce. I recommend checking it out.
…Speaking of Lemon Sauce for Salmon brings me quintessential part of this recipe. The most delicious lemon and butter sauce. It is classic, simple, need only 4 ingredients with just 5 minutes prep time.
To make sauce, I start by perfuming a little bit of butter with fresh chopped garlic. Once garlic is perfumed, I add more butter and lemon juice to create a creamy butter sauce. Pinch of seasoning and fresh herbs completes the sauce. Only trick is to not let butter break. (read instructions in complete recipe and watch video for details).
Whenever I update a recipe, I like to keep an old photo for remembrance. First time when I made grilled salmon we were living in sunny California. Sun shined bright and not even a trace of fog or rain whole year. So, the picture you see below was grilled outdoor. Vishal insisted me to take one shot, in evening, very low-light, just before we sat to eat dinner. I never liked picture but grilled salmon with crispy skin, slathered in lemony butter sauce and side of asparagus and charred lemon was to die-for delicious. I shared it as-is with a promise to take pictures again.
Excerpt from my old post:
"We often eat grilled meat/fish in dinner. I never prefer to pre-cook fish for Vishal. Fish always taste best when prepared fresh, just before serving. Especially GRILLED fish. So, I know, I will not be able to get you more pictures until we make Salmon for lunch or over the weekend someday." :)
I finally got the chance.
Thanks to all of you who trusted my recipe even with above picture so far. Honestly, recipe is the same. I have not changed a thing. I have so much faith in this salmon with lemony sauce, that if this salmon preparation is wrong, I don't want to be right.
Only change you will see is the grilled cauliflower steak on side instead of asparagus. You are welcome to use any grill-friendly veggies you prefer.
Grilled Salmon on Cast Iron Skillet: All directions are same as stated in Step 1 below. Only make sure iron skillet is heated through and brush oil on skillet before placing the salmon. (Remember to follow the directions for a perfect recipe)

Steps:
- Pat dry Salmon fillets with paper towel. Drizzle olive oil over fillets and flip to generously coat both sides. Season skin side with salt and black pepper. On preheated grill, grill the salmon skin side down for 3-4 minutes. In meantime, season the top side. Then flip with wide spatula and grill additional 3 minutes. Remove grilled salmon on a plate.
- In a medium sauce pan, heat 1/2 tbsp butter. Add garlic and let it perfume the sauce for 20-35 sec. Don't let garlic burn. Add lemon juice and remaining butter. *Let the butter just melt and create a creamy sauce. Switch-off heat, remove from heat and add chopped parsley/cilantro, and season with salt and black pepper.
- Divide salmon among two serving plates. Pour lemon-butter, divide equally. Garnish with scallion ribbons, carrots, and grilled lemon (if using). Sever immediately!

MARY BERRY SALMON WITH PRESERVED LEMON | BBC2 LOVE TO COOK ...
From thehappyfoodie.co.uk
Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/Gas 6 and butter a baking sheet.
Sprinkle the semolina and paprika on to a large plate and season with salt and black pepper. Spread the top of each salmon fillet with the butter and press the fillets, buttered side down, on to the semolina to give an even crust.
Lay the parsley stalks on the baking sheet and sit the salmon fillets on top of the stalks. Bake in the oven for 15–18 minutes, until the salmon is just opaque and the top is crisp and golden. If liquid is beginning to seep out of the salmon, it is overcooked – it should be holding the juices.
To make the sauce, gather up the parsley leaves and place in a food processor. Add the preserved lemon(s) and whiz until finely chopped. Add the lemon juice, mayonnaise and crème fraîche and season with salt and pepper – go easy on the salt as the lemons are preserved in brine. Process until finely chopped.
When you are ready to serve, boil the samphire in salted water for 2 minutes, then drain, and heat the sauce gently until just melted.
Arrange the hot salmon fillets on a plate with the samphire, sauce and a lemon wedge alongside.
Mary’s tips:
Salmon can be prepared with crust on top up to 4 hours ahead. Sauce can be made up to 2 days ahead.
