Grilled Salmon With Avocado Tzatziki And Grilled Lemons Recipes

GRILLED SALMON WITH TZATZIKI

Steps:

• Preheat heat grill to medium-high.
• Set the quinoa or rice to cook on the stove, according to directions. (Quinoa only takes roughly 20-30 minutes)
• Brush salmon with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Set aside. Brush the eggplant or zucchini with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Make the optional Tzatziki Sauce, or use store-bought.
• Place salmon on a well-greased grill, along with the lemon (open side down), the tomato (open side down) and the sliced eggplant. Grill salmon on both sides for 3-4 minutes, shorter or longer depending on the thickness of the cut. Grill the lemon and tomato until deep grill marks appear, and flip the eggplant, grilling till tender and translucent. (You will use the grilled lemon to squeeze over the salmon before serving.)
• When veggies and salmon are done, assemble the 2 bowls.
• Divide quinoa among two bowls. Top with a handful of greens. Add any fresh veggies you like and drizzle with a little olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper and a squeeze of the grilled lemon. Arrange the grilled vegetables and salmon over top. Squeeze more of the grilled lemon over the whole bowl. Spoon a few generous spoonfuls of tzatziki sauce over top of the salmon. Scatter with fresh dill or other herbs.
• Pour yourself a glass of white wine. Enjoy!

GRILLED SALMON WITH AVOCADO TZATZIKI AND GRILLED LEMONS

Steps:

• Heat grill to high. If using cedar planks for fish, make sure to soak the planks for at least an hour before cooking. Combine the oil with the oregano in a blender and blend until smooth. Eason with salt and pepper to taste. Prepare the tzatziki sauce. Put the avocados, garlic, jalapeno, yogurt, lemon zest and lemon juice in the bowl of a food processor and process until smooth. Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl, stir in the cucumber and parsley, and season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until serving. Brush the fillets with the oregano oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the salmon for about 3 minutes per side, or if cooking on plank grill until fish is done. While fish is grilling, brush the cut sides of the lemon with the oregano oil. Grill cut side down until golden. Serve the salmon with a dollop of avocado tzatziki and squeeze the grilled lemons over the top.
