Looking for a grilled salmon that is bit different? Then try this recipe that uses Dijon mustard and cayenne pepper. Yummy!
1/3 C butter
2 T lemon juice
4-6 tsp Dijon mustard (adjust according to personal taste)
1/8 cayenne pepper
1 T finely chopped parsley
6 salmon steaks (about 1 inch thick)
olive oil
sale and pepper
Best the butter until it is creamy and then gradually mix in lemon juice until fluffy. Add mustard, cayenne and parsley. (You can do this part ahead of time if wanted and chill until ready to cook.)
Lightly cover salmon steaks with olive oil and sprinkle them with salt and pepper. Place the steaks on a hot grill, turning once, and cooking until the fish seems flaky in the center when touched with a form. (This will be about 10 minutes.)
Remove the steaks from grill and place on a serving platter with equal portions of the butter mixture — be sure that the serving platter you use is ok to be placed in an oven .
Put the serving platter in the over under the broiler at 400 degrees for about 4 minutes to allow the butter mixture to melt and ooze into the salmon steaks.
This recipe serves 6.
