Creating Grilled Salmon with Blackberry Sauce is an exciting process. Follow these simple steps for a delectable dish:
1. Preheat Grill: Begin by preheating your grill to medium-high heat.
2. Prepare Salmon: Brush each salmon fillet with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper on both sides.
3. Grill Salmon: Place the salmon fillets skin-side down onto the grill. Cook for about 6-8 minutes per side, depending on thickness, until the salmon is cooked through and has nice grill marks.
4. Make Blackberry Sauce: In a small saucepan, combine fresh blackberries, honey (or maple syrup), balsamic vinegar, thyme, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, mashing the blackberries slightly until the mixture thickens (about 5-7 minutes), stirring frequently.
5. Serve: Once the salmon is done, plate it and generously drizzle the blackberry sauce on top.
