Steps:
- Prepare a grill for medium heat. Whisk 1 Tbsp. honey, 1½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1 tsp. Morton kosher salt, and 1 tsp. finely grated lemon zest in a small bowl to combine. Add 6 garlic cloves, finely chopped, 4 Tbsp. unsalted butter, room temperature, and 2 Tbsp. finely chopped dill and whisk again to combine (some lemon zest may remain separate and that's okay).
- Tear off a large piece of foil according to the length and thickness of salmon (15x15" or larger) and place on a rimmed baking sheet. Place one 1 lb. boneless salmon fillet, preferably skin-on, arranging skin side down if skin is on, in center of foil (the skin will stick slightly to foil and brown while the fish cooks; you want this as it will add to the sauce). Spread garlic butter over fish, then drizzle 3 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice on top. Carefully fold one side of foil up and over fish so lemon juice stays contained, then bring other sides up to meet it and fold together to seal, leaving about a 4" opening on top for steam to escape (this will help sauce reduce a bit).
- Place foil packet on grate and grill fish until opaque throughout and firm, 16-20 minutes. Transfer packet to a cutting board and let fish rest 5 minutes.
- Carefully open foil packet and cut fish in half. Transfer to plates; pour juices from packet over. Drizzle fish with remaining 1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice, dividing evenly, and top with more finely chopped dill.

Steps:
- For the minced herb butter: Line a baking sheet that fits into the freezer with parchment paper.
- Put the butter in a small mixing bowl and add the parsley. Stir to combine with a rubber spatula. Scoop into a piping bag fitted with a star tip. Pipe the butter into rosettes on the prepared baking sheet. Freeze until the butter is set, about 1 hour.
- For the salmon: Line a plate with paper towels and place the salmon on it skin-side up. Using a paring knife, score the salmon by making 2 small slits in the skin on each piece, making sure not to cut into the flesh. Pat the skin with paper towels to make sure it is as dry as possible.
- Place a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Once the skillet is warm, add the vegetable oil and heat until shimmering. The skillet needs to be very hot to create a crispy sear at the start.
- Season the salmon skin with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, then place the salmon pieces skin-side down in the oil; reduce the heat to medium. Using a fish spatula, apply even pressure to each piece to make sure it stays flat. Cook, without flipping, until the edges are golden brown and the flesh is turning opaque, 7 to 8 minutes. Season the flesh of the salmon with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and flip over to finish cooking; it will take about 2 minutes more for medium (125 degrees F), depending on the thickness of the fish. Do not flip the fish again or cover the skillet.
- Plate the salmon crispy skin facing up. Top each piece with a rosette of herb butter. Serve immediately.
SALMON ROASTED IN BUTTER
This simple fish dish is best made with wild salmon, but it works equally well with the farmed sort. It's astonishingly easy. In a hot oven, melt butter in a skillet until it sizzles, add the salmon, flip, remove the skin, then allow to roast a few minutes more. You'll have an elegant fish dinner in about 15 minutes. Don't be afraid to play with herb and fat combinations: parsley, chervil or dill work well with butter; thyme, basil or marjoram with olive oil; or peanut oil with cilantro or mint.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 475 degrees. Place the butter and half the herb in a roasting pan just large enough to fit the salmon and place it in the oven. Heat about 5 minutes, until the butter melts and the herb begins to sizzle.
- Add the salmon to the pan, skin side up. Roast 4 minutes. Remove from the oven, then peel the skin off. (If the skin does not lift right off, cook 2 minutes longer.) Sprinkle with salt and pepper and turn the fillet over. Sprinkle with salt and pepper again.
- Roast 3 to 5 minutes more, depending on the thickness of the fillet and the degree of doneness you prefer. Cut into serving portions, spoon a little of the butter over each and garnish with the remaining herb. Serve with lemon wedges.

SALMON IN HERB BUTTER
Steps:
- Melt the butter and squeeze in lemon juice and add crushed garlic, cilantro and green onions and mix well. Place salmon fillet on a piece of aluminum foil that is large enough to completely wrap and seal the fillet. After placing the salmon on the foil, brush or pour the butter mixture on the salmon. Seal the salmon in foil. Place on the barbecue grill and cook for 10 to 12 minutes per side. Any longer will dry out the salmon. Cut in portions and serve immediately.
- Fish can also be cooked in a preheated 350-degree F oven for 35 to 40 minutes.
GRILLED SALMON WITH HERB AND MEYER LEMON COMPOUND BUTTER
Steps:
- In a small bowl, combine the butter, zest, herbs and garlic. Mix until everything is well mixed. Season, to taste, with salt. If using right away, keep the butter at room temperature. If making ahead, reserve in the refrigerator and bring to room temperature before using.
- Preheat grill to medium.
- Remove the salmon from the refrigerator and let come to room temperature. Season with salt and coat with olive oil. Brush and oil the grill. Place the salmon, skin side down, on the clean, preheated grill. After 2 to 3 minutes, rotate the salmon 90 degrees to create cross-hatch grill marks on the salmon skin. Cook the salmon for another 3 to 4 minutes. As the salmon cooks it will turn from translucent orange to opaque pink.
- Turn the salmon over and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes. If the salmon starts to burn, or the flames flare up move the fish to a cooler part of the grill.* Remove from the grill and top with the room temperature compound butter. The butter should act as a sauce and melt over and coat the grilled salmon.
- What a delish fish!
- *Tip: It is a general rule to cook fish for 8 minutes per inch of thickness. I like salmon cooked to about medium, so I cook mine for a little less.

SALMON WITH LIME HERB BUTTER
Reader's Digest, as homey as it gets, took me by surprise with an international lineup of recipes in its "30 Minute Cookbook." I gave its recipe for salmon with lime-herb butter a try, partly because keeping compound butters in the refrigerator is a terrific time saver.
