This quickly marinated minty salmon is very easy to make and gourmet-delicious. It's perfect when grilled over a hardwood fire, but can easily be cooked in a hot skillet.

Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Preheat a grill for medium-high heat. Place the grill rack 5 inches from the heat source.
Step 2
In a blender or food processor combine the mint and parsley with the lemon juice, garlic, honey, olive oil, salt and pepper. Blend into a smooth paste. Spread the herb paste over the salmon fillets and allow to marinate for five minutes.
Step 3
Remove salmon from marinade, and discard remaining marinade. Lightly oil the grill, then grill salmon for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until fish flakes when tested with a fork.
Step 4
Brush the fillets with melted butter and garnish with lemon slices and mint sprigs before serving.
