Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (4-6 ounces each) salmon fillets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 pieces ciabatta rolls or sandwich buns
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons dijon mustard
- 4 pieces lettuce leaves
- 2 pieces tomatoes, sliced
- 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons butter
Instructions
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Brush the salmon fillets with the olive oil mixture, coating them evenly on all sides.
Place the salmon fillets on the preheated grill, skin-side down if applicable. Grill for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Remove from the grill and set aside.
While the salmon is grilling, lightly toast the ciabatta rolls or sandwich buns on the grill or in a toaster. Spread a thin layer of butter on the cut sides of the rolls before toasting for a golden, crispy texture.
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard together to create a flavorful spread.
To assemble the sandwiches, spread the mayonnaise-Dijon mixture on the bottom half of each roll. Layer with a lettuce leaf, a slice or two of tomato, and several slices of red onion.
Place a grilled salmon fillet on top of the vegetables, then add the top half of the roll. Gently press the sandwich together.
Serve immediately with your choice of side dish, such as a crisp green salad or potato chips.
