Instructions
 

Preparation : Now that we have our ingredients ready, let’s get on with making The Olive Garden Salmon Recipe: Before we start, there are two things that we need to do. Firstly, marinate the Salmon and put a pot of water on the stove to boil our Rice and freeze our Herb Butter.

    Garlic Butter Herb;

    • In a bowl, add butter, garlic, and parsley. Mix all these to make a good paste. Place it on parchment paper, fold it, seal both ends, and put it in the freezer to chill.

    Salmon Marination;

    • In a bowl, place your salmon and add in salt, pepper, and Italian seasonings. Rub these on both sides of the salmon and let it sit and marinate for about 15-20 minutes.

    Making the Herb-Grilled Salmon;

    • Get a skillet and add oil to it. You may use cooking spray if you are trying to avoid extra calories.
    • Once hot, add in your marinated salmon. Place it skin-side down and brush it with some oil.
    • Cook the salmon well on both sides by flipping it regularly until you get the desired cook.
    • Once it's done, cover it so that it stays warm while you cook your Rice.

    Garlic Rice and Veggies;

    • Take some asparagus and blach it in hot water. Once done, take a pan and add a dash of oil and place your asparagus in it. Sprinkle some Salt and pepper on it and saute it for a minute. Once done, keep it aside.
    • In another pan, add butter and let it melt. Once melted, add in the boiled rice and stir. Cook it on medium heat to avoid the browning of rice.
    • Now add in the chopped Garlic and mix. Cook for about 5 minutes to get the Rice fully tender and aromatic.

    To Serve;

    • Get your Herb Butter out of the freezer and cut a ½ cm ring out of it.
    • Get a platter and on one side add your rice and asparagus and on the other Place the hot salmon and on top of it, keep the herb butter.
    • Serve it with lemon wedges and top the salmon with some leftover sauce in the pan to help melt the butter faster.
