Ingredients
4 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 tablespoons lemon juice
4 salmon fillets, each 5 ounces
Cracked black pepper, to taste
4 green olives, chopped
4 thin slices lemon
Directions
Prepare a hot fire in a charcoal grill or heat a gas grill or broiler.
In a small bowl, combine the basil, parsley, minced garlic and
lemon juice.
Spray the fish with cooking spray. Sprinkle with black pepper.
Top each fillet with equal amounts of the basil-garlic mixture.
Place the fish herb-side down on the grill. Grill over high heat.
When the edges turn white, after about 3 to 4 minutes, turn the
fish over and place on a small section of household aluminum
foil. Move the fish to a cooler part of the grill or reduce the heat.
Grill until the fish is opaque throughout when tested with the tip
of knife and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the
thickest part reads 145 F (about 4 minutes longer).
Remove the salmon and place on warmed plates. Garnish with
green olives and lemon slices.

Dietitian's tip-
Instead of the usual breaded and fried fish, this fish is grilled,
Mediterranean style. You may substitute halibut, cod, sea bass or
any other whitefish, and the calorie values are similar.
