Ingredients
  • 4 tablespoons melted butter
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 6 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup chopped, fresh herbs of choice (I used parsley, thyme, and basil)
  • kosher salt, pepper, Italian seasoning blend, crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 (2-pound) side of salmon
  • 2 medium zucchini sliced 1/4 inch thick
Instructions
  1. Put the melted butter, lemon juice, garlic, herbs, kosher salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes (if using) in a medium bowl. Stir until combined.

  2. Put the salmon on a large, lined baking sheet. Spoon half of the lemon garlic butter over the salmon.

  3. Put the sliced zucchini in the bowl with remaining butter and toss until combined. Place the zucchini around the salmon on the baking sheet. Pour any remaining butter from the bowl over top and season with just a little more kosher salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.

  4. Oven: Place in a 375-degree oven for 20 to 25 minutes.

    Traeger Pellet Grill: Set the grill to 375 degrees. Place the baking sheet on the grill grate for 20 to 25 minutes.
