Grilled salmon,,,, yet another way,,, serves 2

We like French fries and salad with this.

1/2stick butter, room temperature
1 lemon, zested
a little bit of fresh dill, finely chopped or a rounded teaspoon of dried
a little bit of fresh thyme, finely chopped or a rounded teaspoon of dried
1 clove garlic, smashed and finely chopped
salt and pepper
2 (6-ounce ish) salmon fillets, skin-on
olive oil



Combine the butter, zest, herbs and garlic in a small bowl. Mix it up thoroughly. Season, a little, with salt and pepper. Preheat grill or frying pan to medium.
Rub the salmon with some olive oil then salt and pepper. Brush and oil the grill or drizzle a about 2 tbsp. olive oil in the frying pan.. Place the salmon, skin side up, on the clean, preheated grill or in the frying pan. Cook the salmon about 3-4 minutes a side. As the salmon cooks it will change from translucent orange to opaque pink.
If the salmon starts to burn, move the fish to a cooler part of the grill. Remove from the grill or pan and top with the room temperature butter stuff. The butter should act as a sauce and melt over and coat the grilled salmon. I like to serve lemon wedges with it.

SERVE IT UP!!! With some good bread and some white wine!!
