Ingredients

  • 4 salmon steaks
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Directions

  1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Brush both sides of the salmon steaks with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper.
  3. In a small saucepan, combine the blueberries, balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, dried thyme, dried rosemary, dried basil, dried oregano, and red pepper flakes. Cook over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the blueberries start to burst and release their juices. Remove from heat and set aside.

  5. Once the salmon steaks are cooked, remove them from the grill and let them rest for 2-3 minutes.
  6. Serve the grilled salmon steaks with a generous spoonful of the savory blueberry sauce on top. Garnish with fresh blueberries and sprigs of thyme, if desired.
