Grilled Lemon Salmon

You know you're a food blogger when you look at this picture and the first thing that comes to your mind is "Where is the color on this plate?"  Why in the world didn't I steam some fresh broccoli or green beans to add some nice vibrant color and vegetables this otherwise dull colored meal?  Clearly I'm never going to be a food stylist.  

I'm operating under the assumption that unlike me, you will not get distracted by the fact that this plate has no color and actually look past my dull colored plate.  This was actually was a delicious meal. The grilled lemon salmon, the white rice, the white crescent roll - it was all delicious - despite the lack of color.  I would definitely recommend that you make this dinner for yourself.  

Grilled Salmon with Lemon
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 salmon filets
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Combine oil, lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce in a shallow bowl.  

Place salmon in marinade and let stand 15 minutes. 

Preheat grill and sprinkle salmon with salt and pepper.   Cook salmon on grill until cooked through.

Serve with equally simple side dishes.  Something green on this plate would have been great but I didn't have anything on hand. 

This meal just goes to show that dinners don't have to be complicated and fancy to be delicious.  This was a super yummy dinner and it was ready in less than 30 minutes.  A little color would make it an even more attractive meal but nonetheless, it was tasty.
