Time 22m

Yield 4 pieces, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb salmon
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 pinch fresh ground black pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons fresh rosemary leaves, chopped or 1 teaspoon dried, crushed rosemary
rosemary sprig, fresh (optional)
capers (optional)

Steps:

Cut the fish into 4 equal-size portions. Combine the olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, garlic, and rosemary in a bowl. Brush the mixture onto the fish.
To grill, arrange the fish on a grill rack or use a grill basket sprayed with olive oil cooking spray. Grill over medium-hot coals until the fish flakes easily (allow 4-6 minutes per 1/2" of thickness). If the fish is more than 1" thick, gently turn it halfway through grilling.
To broil, spray the rack of a broiler pan with olive oil cooking spray and arrange the fish on it. Broil 4" from the heat for 4-6 minutes per 1/2" thickness. If the fish is more than 1" thick, gently turn it through broiling.
To serve, top the fish with capers, if using, and garnish with rosemary sprigs, if desired.
