GRILLED SALMON WITH DIJON BALSAMIC CRUST Serves 4 1 1/2 to 2 pounds center cut salmon fillet with skin Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper 1 tablespoon finely chopped shallots 1 tablespoon coarse Dijon mustard 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar 2 teaspoons lemon juice 1. Rinse the fillet and pat dry. Season both sides well with salt and pepper 2. Mix the shallots, Dijon and vinegar and coat both sides of the fillet with the dressing. Let marinate for up to 3 to 4 hours. 3. Preheat a gas grill or preheat grill pan over medium heat and place the fish skin side down. Skin should sizzle. Cook for 5 minutes on skin side without moving the fish then carefully turn with a large metal spatula or two spatulas to cook about 3 to 4 minutes longer on the flesh side without moving the fish. For medium rare the fish will be springy to the touch – or if preferred cook until fish is a bit firm for medium. Transfer fish to a carving board, skin-side-down, and slice into four even servings as well as possible. The pieces may look a bit raggedy but that’s fine. Sprinkle with lemon juice and serve.
