ingredients

2 tablespoons butter, unsalted and softened
¹⁄₂ tablespoon chives, chopped
¹⁄₂ tablespoon ginger, fresh grated
1 -2 tablespoon lemon juice
¹⁄₂ tablespoon soy sauce, low sodium
24 ounces salmon, 4 fillets
salt and pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil

directions

Mix the butter, chives, ginger, lemon juice and soy sauce and set aside.
Preheat a grill or grill pan. Season the salmon with s & p and rub with the oil. Wipe the grill grates clean and rub with a paper towel dipped in oil. Add the salmon skin side down and cook for 4-5 minutes, until the skin is lightly charred and crisp.
Flip the fish and cook for another 2-3 minutes on the flesh side until the flesh flakes with gentle pressure from your finger but is still slightly translucent in the middle. (This will cook it to medium for well done leave it on another 2-3 minutes).
Serve the salmon with a generous spoonful of the flavored butter, which should melt on contact.

I am originally from Minneapolis, Minnesota and moved to Ohio in 1978. It was quite a culture shock going from the city to living next to the Amish. I spend most of my time cooking, cleaning and caring for my four kids. I have abandoned cookbooks and now cook from favorite, wilted recipe pages and the internet. I fell in love with my Italian family recipes (Scavo, Rotella, Scalzo, Micelli, Grande, Gigliotti) and my Mom's homecooked meals.
