WHOLE GRILLED SALMON WITH CHANTERELLES
This recipe is going to instruct you to remove the backbone of the fish from inside the cavity-no small task but well worth it. You can also just tie two whole fillets of salmon together (skin side facing out) if you'd like.

Steps:
- Chanterelles:
- Heat a large skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium-high. Add butter and oil and swirl pan until butter is melted. Add mushrooms, thyme, and garlic and season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing often, until mushrooms are golden brown and tender, 5-8 minutes; set aside.
- Salmon and assembly:
- Prepare a grill for medium-low heat. Using a sharp knife, make a slit along belly of salmon, running from rib cage to tail. Turn salmon on its back and cut along both sides of backbone without piercing through skin on other side. Carefully remove backbone without tearing skin, then remove pin bones with small needle-nose pliers or tweezers. Season inside of fish with salt and pepper and stuff lemon slices, dill, thyme, and tarragon inside cavity. Tie wet kitchen twine around fish in several places to secure. Place on a rimmed baking sheet; rub skin all over with oil.
- Carefully place fish on grill grates and grill, uncovered, until flesh on bottom side is mostly opaque but still slightly translucent in the center, 12-18 minutes. Carefully turn fish and cook on the other side to the same doneness, 8-10 minutes. Transfer fish to a clean rimmed baking sheet and let rest at least 10 minutes.
- Place skillet with chanterelles directly on edge of grill to reheat while you portion the fish. Remove strings and peel back skin from salmon; discard. Break flesh of top fillet into large pieces and transfer to a platter. Discard aromatics and remove skin from bottom fillet, break up, and transfer to platter. Season with more salt and pepper and spoon warm chanterelles over.
WHOLE SALMON ON THE GRILL WITH FENNEL, LEMON, AND ONIONS
Steps:
- Fire up the grill, with the coals lined up under the fish for direct grilling.
- Sprinkle sea salt generously in the cavity of the fish and over the skin, then stuff it with the onions, lemons, fronds, and herb sprigs. Tie butcher string around the fish in three or four places to hold the stuffing in. In between the string, make deep incisions with your knife through the thickest part of the fish on both sides, all the way down to the spine. (The fish will cook more quickly, and the smoke flavor will get inside the fish better.) Brush both the fish and the grill lightly with oil, dust the salmon skin on both sides lightly with flour, and place the salmon on the grill.
- Grill over medium-hot direct heat, with the cover on and the vents open. When the skin is browned on 1 side, use 2 large metal spatulas to loosen the salmon from the grate and carefully turn over. Continue cooking until just cooked through and an instant read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the fish registers 135 degrees F to 140 degrees F, about 35 to 40 minutes total cooking time. Remove the fish from the grill and place it on a large platter. Allow the fish to cool for 5 minutes, then remove the butcher string and serve.

Steps:
- Clean your whole fish with cold water, inside and outside. (If you've caught the fish yourself, remember to scale it and to remove the gills when gutting it.)
- Thinly slice your lemons and set them aside. Cut your butter into pats, around 1 teaspoon each.
- Sprinkle some of the salt and pepper into the cavity of the fish as well.
- Stuff the inside of your salmon with the fresh dill and thyme, most of the butter, and most of the lemon slices.
- Use a sharp knife to score the side of the fish 1/4" deep 4-5 times. Rub your remaining butter into where you have scored your fish. Put the remaining lemon slices into the butter in the scored slices In the fish. Rub the bottom side of your fish with olive oil to prevent it from sticking to the pan or grilling surface.
- Preheat your grill to 400 degrees and place the fish directly onto the grill (you can use a cookie sheet or grill mat if you are worried about sticking.)
- Let the fish cook until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees. It will take about 20-30 minutes, depending on the size of the fish.
- After the fish reaches 145 degrees, remove it from the grill and serve. Watch for bones!

Tips for Perfectly Grilled Salmon with Chanterelles
- Choose the freshest salmon possible. Look for fish that is bright pink in color and has a mild, briny smell. Avoid salmon that is dull in color or has a strong, fishy odor.
- Use a good quality olive oil. This will help to prevent the salmon from sticking to the grill and will also add flavor to the fish.
- Season the salmon with salt and pepper before grilling. This will help to enhance the natural flavor of the fish.
- Grill the salmon over medium heat. This will help to prevent the fish from overcooking and will also help to create a nice, crispy skin.
- Cook the salmon until it is opaque throughout. This will ensure that the fish is cooked through.
- Serve the salmon immediately with your favorite sides. Some popular sides include grilled vegetables, roasted potatoes, and a simple salad.
