Ingredients
– 4 salmon fillets
– 1 cup fresh blackberries
– 2 tablespoons honey
– 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (or ½ teaspoon dried thyme)
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Lemon wedges (for serving)
Instructions
Follow these straightforward steps to create the perfect Grilled Salmon with Blackberry Sauce:
1. Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, minced garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper. Coat the salmon fillets with the marinade and let them sit for about 10 minutes.
2. Make the Blackberry Sauce: In a saucepan, combine the blackberries, honey, balsamic vinegar, and a pinch of salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring gently until the blackberries break down and the sauce thickens slightly, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
3. Preheat the Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high.
4. Grill the Salmon: Place the marinated salmon fillets on the grill skin-side down. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
5. Serve the Dish: Once the salmon is grilled to perfection, place it on a serving platter. Drizzle generously with the blackberry sauce and garnish with fresh blackberries and lemon wedges.
6. Enjoy: Serve immediately while the salmon is warm and the sauce is fresh.
