Let’s begin by gathering our ingredients for Blackened Halibut with Grilled Salmon with Mint & Basil Sauce:

Ingredients:
salmon fillet
1 oz fresh basil leaves
1 oz mint leaves
7 oz olive oil
1 egg yolk
1 teaspoon mustard
2 tablespoons cream
2 teaspoons lemon zest
juice of one lemon
Salt & pepper

Boil a pot of water and add the mint leaves and basil leaves to infuse for 15 seconds. Remove and drain.

Remove excess water on the leaves. Put the mint leaves and basil with 7 oz. olive oil and purée. Marinate for 15 minutes.

In a bowl, combine the egg yolk, mustard, salt, and pepper. Whisk until you get a smooth sauce.

Stir the mint and basil-flavored olive oil into this mixture gradually until the preparation gets thick and creamy. Whisk well with the lemon zest, lemon juice and cream. Place this sauce in the refrigerator.

Brush salmon fillets with oil. Grill on medium heat for 5-7 minutes on each side, depending on thickness.
