Total Time: 30 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• 4 (8 ounce) salmon fillets
• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
• kosher salt
• freshly cracked black pepper
• 1 bunch fresh parsley, washed and dried, large stems removed
• 1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves, washed and dried
• 1/2 cup fresh mint leaves, washed and dried
• 1 garlic clove, peeled
• 2 tablespoons grainy mustard
• 5 dashes tabasco sauce, to taste
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Recipe

• 1 rub the salmon fillets on both sides with the vegetable oil and sprinkle them generously with salt& pepper.
• 2 place them over the coals and grill until they are just opaque throughout, 6 to 8 minutes per side.
• 3 to check for doneness, poke the fish with your finger to check its firmness level; if you're unsure, nick, peek, and cheat: cut into one of the fillets at its thickest point and peek to be sure it is just opaque all the way through.
• 4 while the salmon is cooking, combine all the sauce ingredients in a food processor or blender and puree until serve each salmon fillet topped with a spoonful of the sauce, passing any remaining sauce on the side.
