Grilled Salmon Steak with Salsa Verde 


  • Author: Kevin Hermann
  • Yield: Serves 4

Description

Give the beef a break and try this salmon steak on the grill instead.


Ingredients

Scale
  •  4 salmon steaks, cross cut
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp salt
  • 2 tbsp black pepper
  • 4 limes, cut in half
  • 4 radish, fine julienne
  • 2 tbsp chives, cut fine
  • 1 pint salsa verde

For the salsa verde:

  • 1 cup capers
  • 1 bunch cilantro
  • 1 cup parsley, chopped
  • 1 tbsp garlic, chopped
  • 1 tsp red pepper flake
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 2 shallot, chopped
  • 1 tbsp coriander, toasted
  • 1 cup olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat grill to medium-high.
  2. Season salmon steaks with olive oil, salt and pepper. Set aside while grill heats up.
  3. Combine salsa verde ingredients into a food processor, in smaller batch if you have a smaller unit. Puree the ingredients until small chunks remain, but all the herbs have been cut down.
  4. Add more oil if mixture is too thick for your liking. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Refrigerate overnight for best results.
  6. In a small mixing bowl, combine radish and chives. Set aside.
  7. Once the grill has reached temperature, grill each salmon steak until desired doneness. Cooking times will vary on thickness of each steak. Bring the internal temperature to 125 degrees for a nice medium salmon steak.
  8. Serve the steaks with a side of the salsa verde, radish slaw and grilled limes.
