Ingredients

Cost per serving $1.04 view details
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp kosher salt divided (3/4 and 1/4)
  • 1tbs extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 side of salmon or 4 filets (about 1-1/2#)
  • 1/3 C plus 1/4 C thinly sliced basil, divided
  • 2 medium tomatoes, sliced
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper

Directions

  1. preheat grill to medium
  2. make a paste of the minced garlic 3/4 tsp salt
  3. in a cup or bowl mix the paste with the olive oil
  4. make a double layer of regular aluminum foil and coat with Pam
  5. put salmon on foil skin down
  6. spread the paste/oil mixture on top of salmon
  7. sprinkle with 1/3 C basil
  8. overlap tomatoes slices on top
  9. sprinkle the remaining 1/4 tsp salt and the pepper
  10. transfer the salmon on the foil to the grill (do not remove the salmon from the foil - the foil keeps it from burning as the salmon cooks skin down the entire time)
  11. grill until done - about 16 minutes on my 3-burner Weber with all 3 burners at medium
  12. when ready to serve, sprinkle the remaining 1/4 C basil
