Preparing this healthy meal will hardly make a dent in your schedule, so what are you waiting for!
Ingredients
- 1.0 zucchini ((cut in half length-wise))
- 2.0 bell peppers ((cut, any color))
- 1.0 red onion ((cut into one-inch wedges))
- 1.0 bundle asparagus
- 1.0 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 tsp salt ((sea salt for flavor))
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
- 1 1/4 pound salmon fillet cut into four 5 oz. servings
- 1/4 cup chopped basil
- 1.0 lemon cut into 4
Instructions
Grilled Salmon & Vegetables
- Preheat your grill to medium/high temperature
- Lather all vegetables in oil. Sprinkle half of your salt on top. After, dust salmon with pepper and the other half of your salt.
- With the skin facing down, place your four salmon pieces and oiled vegetables onto the grill. Turning occasionally, cook the vegetables until they are tender and slightly darkened (about 5 minutes per side). Cook the salmon as is without turning it, until the meat is tender enough to split with a utensil (about 10 minutes).
- After vegetables have cooled slightly, roughly cut and toss together in a bowl. Peel away the skin from the salmon and serve with the vegetables (you can leave the skin on if preferable). Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of basil on each piece of salmon and serve with a 1/4 of a lemon on the side.
- Enjoy!
