Super easy and out-of-this-world delicious grilled salmon. This salmon is made on the grill and then topped with an amazing, 10-minute brown butter citrus sauce.
Ingredients

• 450 grams of salmon with skin

• Salt

• Fresh cracked black pepper

• Oil to rub the salmon skin

• Sauce:

• 1 large shallot

• 4 Tbsp unsalted butter

• Zest of 1 lemon

• Zest of 1 orange

• 1 Tbsp lemon juice

• 2 Tbsp orange juice

• 5-6 large basil leaves minced

• Pinch of salt

Instructions

• Prepare salmon on the hot grill.

• Rub salmon skin with some oil and season salmon with salt and pepper.

• Place salmon in the grill skin down and cook it, with the lid closed, just until it's opaque and firm to the touch. Depending on the thickness of the salmon, it will take from 8 to 12 minutes.

• Sauce:

• Preheat a cooking pan over medium heat.

• Slice shallots thinly and add them to the preheated pan. Add butter to the pan and stir as it melts. Let the butter simmer and get browned. It won't take long, especially in a stainless steel pan.

• Once butter is browned and gets a beautiful nutty aroma, add lemon and orange zest, minced basil, a pinch of salt, and lemon and orange juices. Stir and let it simmer for just a couple of minutes. Take off the heat.

• Once salmon is cooked, pour sauce over the whole salmon.
