How To Make herbed up salmon with fresh cherry relish

  • Step 1
    Place salmon in a large ziploc bag. Add the basil, ONLY 1 teaspoon thyme, ONLY 1 teaspoon seasoning, and 2 teaspoons of the olive oil. Seal the bag and gently massage the oil and herbs into the fish fillets.
  • Step 2
    Preheat the grill. Meanwhile, roughly chop the pitted cherries. Place a small saucepan over medium heat for about 2 minutes. Put the garlic and remaining teaspoon of oil in the saucepan. Stir until garlic is fragrant. Add the cherries, vinegar, sugar, remaining teaspoon of the garlic-herb seasoning, and the remaining teaspoon of thyme. Stir to combine and cook for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.
  • Step 3
    Grill the salmon for 3 minutes per side, depending on the thickness. Cook only until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily. Transfer to serving plate and top with the cherry relish.
