Cilantro Lime Grilled Salmon
Description :
This sauce on this salmon is a great jumping off point. Feel free to change up the ingredients into countless delicious sauces. Try swapping in shallots for garlic, lemon for lime juice, or brown sugar for honey. The herbs are also adaptable: basil, parsley, and tarragon would all be great swaps for cilantro. You could even add a splash of white wine if you're feeling fancy.
