Grilled salmon is so simple and delicious—perfect for summer when perhaps you’re trying to eat a little lighter.
Ingredients
2 6-oz. pieces skin-on Atlantic salmon ($8.61*)
1 lemon (sliced in half, $0.68)
1 Tbsp vegetable oil ($0.04)
1 tsp sea salt ($0.02)
½ tsp black pepper (freshly cracked, $0.05)
Instructions
1Preheat grill on high, 450-500°F. In a small bowl, combine 1 Tbsp vegetable oil, 1 tsp sea salt, and 1 tsp black pepper.
2Brush lemon halves and salmon on all sides with oil and season with salt and pepper
3Grill salmon (skin side down) and lemons (cut side down) to grill and grill for 6 minutes.
