Ingredients
– 4 salmon fillets (about 6 ounces each)
– 1 cup fresh blackberries
– 1/4 cup honey
– 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh thyme for garnish (optional)
Instructions
Creating Grilled Salmon with Blackberry Sauce can be simple when you follow these step-by-step instructions:
1. Prepare the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Ensure the grates are clean and lightly oil them to prevent sticking.
2. Make the Sauce: In a small saucepan, combine fresh blackberries, honey, and balsamic vinegar. Cook over medium heat, stirring gently until the blackberries break down and the sauce thickens slightly, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat.
3. Season the Salmon: Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Brush both sides with olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper.
4. Grill the Salmon: Place the seasoned salmon fillets skin-side down on the preheated grill. Cook for about 5-6 minutes, then carefully flip the fillets. Grill for another 4-5 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
5. Serve the Sauce: Once the salmon is grilled, drizzle the blackberry sauce over the top of each fillet.
6. Garnish: Optionally, garnish with fresh thyme for an extra touch of flavor and elegance.
7. Enjoy: Serve immediately and enjoy the incredible flavors of your grilled salmon!
