Juicy salmon fillets brushed with a bright lemon-butter glaze, finished with a light herb garnish. Simple, elegant, and perfect for a quick weeknight dinner.
Preheat the grill to medium-high and pat salmon dry with paper towels.
In a small saucepan, melt butter with olive oil, add lemon juice, minced garlic (if using), and a pinch of salt and pepper. Simmer until fragrant, then remove from heat.
Brush salmon with a portion of the glaze and place on the grill, skin-side down if skin is present. Grill 4–5 minutes per side until opaque and just flakey.
Baste with remaining glaze halfway through cooking. Remove from grill, rest 2 minutes, then sprinkle with chopped parsley and extra lemon juice if desired.
