23Salmon with Tomato Salsa
I am not one that is very fond of Salmon. Of course I have only had it twice and I didn't really have anything but a small amount of seasoning on it. This recipe sounds like something I will have to try. You can do this on your George Foreman Grill as well! INGREDIENTS
- 4 4-ounce salmon filets
- 1 teaspoon mild olive oil
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup finely chopped green & black olives, mixed, pitted
- 1 finely chopped Roma tomato, cut in half, seeds squeezed out
- 1/4 cup finely chopped flat parsley leaves
- 1 minced garlic clove
- 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
DIRECTIONS
1. Brush salmon on both sides with the mild olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
2. Grill 6 - 10 minutes, until salmon flakes easily. (Cooking time will vary depending on thickness of
filets and desired doneness.)
3. While the salmon is cooking, mix the olives, tomato and parsley, garlic, lemon juice and the extra
virgin olive oil. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
Serve salmon hot or cold, topped with a spoonful of the salsa.

Directions
- Preheat your oven's broiler. Grease a broiling pan or line pan with aluminum foil.
- In a small bowl, mix together the Parmesan cheese, butter, mayonnaise and lemon juice. Season with dried basil, pepper, onion powder and celery salt. Mix well and set aside.
- Arrange fillets in a single layer on the prepared pan. Broil a few inches from the heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the fillets over and broil for a couple more minutes.
- Remove the fillets from the oven and cover them with the Parmesan cheese mixture on the top side. Broil for 2 more minutes or until the topping is browned and fish flakes easily with a fork. Be careful not to over cook the fish.
