Description

A delectable and easy way to impress your family or guests with grilled salmon complemented by a rich and creamy red pepper sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 salmon fillets
  • 1 cup of roasted red peppers (jarred or homemade)
  • 1 cup of heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the salmon: Start by preheating your grill to medium-high heat. Brush the salmon fillets with olive oil and season them with salt and pepper.
  2. Grill the salmon: Place the salmon skin-side down on the grill and grill for about 6-8 minutes on each side until opaque and flaky.
  3. Make the red pepper cream sauce: Combine roasted red peppers and heavy cream in a blender, blend until smooth, and warm through in a saucepan.
  4. Serve: Plate the grilled salmon and drizzle with the warm red pepper cream sauce.
  5. Enjoy: Sit back and enjoy the compliments from family or friends!

Notes

Fresh vs. jarred peppers options available for the sauce. For crispy skin, cook the salmon skin-side down without flipping too soon.
