Blackstone Garlic Herb Salmon is a great recipe for the griddle, a garlic herb butter flavors the salmon and has a side of asparagus included in the recipe
2Tbspschopped fresh herbs of choice (I had a mix of thyme, rosemary, basil, and chives)
kosher salt, pepper, crushed red pepper flakes
4salmon fillets (about 4 ounces each)
1poundasparagus (cut the bottom two inches off)
Optional: lemon wedges
Instructions
Put the melted butter, olive oil, garlic, herbs, kosher salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes in a small bowl. Stir until evenly mixed.
Preheat the griddle to medium low. Add a small amount of the garlic herb butter on the griddle, spread evenly and put the salmon (skin side down) and asparagus on the griddle.
The salmon and asparagus will cook about 8 to 9 minutes total depending on the thickness of the salmon. Flip the salmon halfway through and turn the asparagus a few times. Brush the garlic herb butter on the salmon and asparagus a few more times throughout cooking.Note: The asparagus may be done before the salmon, if so just remove the asparagus while the salmon continues to cook. If your salmon is thick, a melting dome may speed up the cook time.
Serve with a squeeze of lemon over top if desired.
