How to Make Grilled Salmon With Chipotle Herb Butter
- In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup (1 stick) softened butter, 2 tablespoons chopped chives, 2 tablespoons chopped parsley, 1 tablespoon chopped chervil, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1-2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (finely minced), and 1 tablespoon adobo sauce.
- Season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
- Using an electric mixer, beat until the mixture is light and fluffy and well incorporated.
- Adjust seasoning as needed.
- Shape the butter into a log, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate until firm (at least 30 minutes).
- Season salmon fillets (about 1 pound) generously with salt and pepper.
- Preheat your grill to high heat. For gas grills, preheat for 10-15 minutes.
- Place salmon fillets skin-side up on a preheated grill grate.
- Close the lid of the gas grill (or cover the grill if using charcoal).
- Grill for 7-10 minutes per side, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
- Top each cooked salmon fillet with a 1/8-inch thick slice of the chipotle herb butter.
