Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 6-ounce salmon steaks
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Minced parsley, chervil, dill, chives or scallions for garnish, optional

Steps:

  • Prepare a gas or charcoal grill or preheat the broiler; adjust the rack so that it is 4 to 6 inches from the heat source. Sprinkle the salmon with salt and pepper. Grill or broil until the first side is browned, about 5 minutes; turn and cook the other side for 2 or 3 minutes, until the fish is done to your liking.
  • While the fish is cooking, put the butter in a small saucepan and turn the heat to medium. Cook, swirling the pan occasionally, until the butter stops foaming and begins to brown. Remove from the heat immediately and season lightly with salt and pepper; keep warm if necessary.
  • To serve, stir the lemon juice into the butter and drizzle a little of it over each piece of fish. Garnish if you like.
