Instructions
Grilled Salmon
- Preheat your grill to 400°
- Prep your salmon by making sure all pinbones are removed. Remove skin if desired.
- In a small bowl, combine butter, lemon pepper, garlic, and dried parsley. Spread evenly over the top of the salmon. Lay slices of salmon on the top of the filet
- Place on the grill and cook until the salmon reaches 145°, 5-7 minutes, flipping halfway if desired.
Salad
- In a large bowl or serving platters, lay down the lettuce.
- Top with halved eggs, tomatoes, cucumber, onions, pickled red onions, feta, and chunks of the cooked salmon (flaked with a fork).
- Drizzle with your favorite dressing, but I prefer a simple drizzle of olive oil, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
