CRISPY-SKINNED SALMON WITH WHOLE LEMON-SESAME SAUCE
Adding an entire lemon-skin, pith, and flesh-to the sauce provides brightness and texture. Any bitterness from the pith will be offset by the sesame oil and honey. That balance makes it a super versatile condiment that pairs well with grilled or roasted vegetables and is great as a topping for stews and braises come winter.

Steps:
- Prepare a grill for medium heat. Rub salmon with 2 Tbsp. olive oil; season both sides with kosher salt.
- Cut ends off lemon and discard. Set lemon upright on a cutting board and slice off 4 lobes, working around the core (the seeds will be left behind). Finely chop lobes (flesh, pith, and all) and transfer to a small bowl; you should have about 1/3 cup. Squeeze juice from core into bowl; discard core. Add shallot, sesame seeds, honey, sesame oil, and 1/3 cup olive oil; season with kosher salt and lots of pepper. Toss to combine.
- Clean and oil grate, then immediately place salmon on grill, skin side down. Cover and grill, without turning, until skin is lightly charred and flesh is opaque all the way through, 6-8 minutes. Transfer salmon to shallow bowls or plates; let cool slightly. Spoon sauce over salmon. Top with basil; sprinkle with sea salt.
GRILLED BRINED SALMON AND EGGPLANT WITH FENNEL CUCUMBER RELISH
Steps:
- Bring water, brown sugar, salt, and 6 tablespoons granulated sugar to a boil in a 5-quart pot, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Transfer 6 cups brine to a 13- by 9-inch glass or ceramic baking dish, then stir in dill and cool. Transfer remaining 4 cups brine to a large bowl and add remaining 4 tablespoons granulated sugar, stirring until dissolved, then cool completely.
- Marinate salmon, skin sides up, in brine in baking dish, chilled, 1 hour. (Do not turn salmon.) Put eggplant in brine in bowl, then invert a small plate over eggplant and weight it with soup can (to keep eggplant immersed). Marinate eggplant at room temperature 30 minutes. (Do not brine salmon or eggplant longer than indicated or they will be too salty.)
- Prepare charcoal or gas grill for cooking.
- Remove salmon from brine and pat dry, discarding brine. Remove eggplant from brine, then rinse and pat dry, discarding brine. Toss eggplant with oil and pepper to taste in a bowl.
- When fire is moderate (you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack for 3 to 4 seconds), grill eggplant on lightly oiled grill rack, turning once, until golden, about 4 minutes total. Transfer to a platter with tongs and keep warm, covered.
- When fire is moderately low (you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack for 5 to 6 seconds), grill salmon, starting with skin sides up and turning once, until just cooked through and skin is crisp, about 8 minutes total.
- Serve salmon over eggplant.
Tips:
- For the best grilled salmon, choose a thick fillet that is at least 1 inch thick.
- To prevent the salmon from sticking to the grill, lightly oil the grates before cooking.
- Cook the salmon over medium heat and avoid flipping it too often. This will help to keep the fish moist and prevent it from overcooking.
- To check if the salmon is cooked through, insert a fork into the thickest part of the fish. If the fork comes out easily, the salmon is done.
- Let the salmon rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the fish.
- Serve the grilled salmon with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, grilled lemon wedges, or a simple green salad.
Conclusion:
Grilled salmon is a healthy and delicious meal that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. By following these tips, you can grill the perfect salmon every time. The fennel-olive relish is a flavorful and refreshing condiment that complements the salmon perfectly. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
