1 (5 to 6 pound) whole salmon
2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil

Herbed Butter Sauce, recipe follows
2 shallots, minced
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, plus 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter

1/2 cup packed chopped tarragon leaves
2 tablespoons packed chopped parsley leaves

  • To make the fish: fillet the fish and remove all bones (You can ask your fishmonger to do this). Season the fish with the olive oil, and salt and pepper. Grill on both sides until the fish has clear grill marks, about 6 minutes per side. Remove from the grill, place on a sheet pan, and finish in the oven.

  • Stir in 3 tablespoons cream. Add half of the tarragon. Whisk in the cold butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, strain and add remaining tarragon and chopped parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Reserve warm.
