Salmon and Olive Salsa
Ingredients:
- 4 (4 ounces each) salmon fillets
- 1 teaspoon mild olive oil for brushing
- Salt and pepper to taste
- ½ cup mixed green and black cured olives, pitted
- 1 Roma tomato, halved and seeds squeezed out
- ¼ cup flat-leaf parsley leaves
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
Instructions:
- Preheat grill 5 minutes.
- Brush salmon fillets on both sides lightly with mild olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Grill fillets 6 to 10 minutes until fish flakes easily when tested with fork. (Cooking time will vary depending on thickness of fillets and desired doneness.)
- While fillets cook, finely chop olives, tomato and parsley. Mix together in small bowl with garlic, lemon juice and extra virgin olive oil. Taste salsa; adjust seasonings with salt, black pepper and more lemon juice, if needed.
- Serve salmon hot or cold topped with a spoonful of olive salsa. Makes 4 servings.
