HERB BUTTER

STEAKS

Prepare the herb butter by creaming the butter in a bowl until smooth and soft. Add the other ingredients and mix thoroughly. Shape the butter into a cylinder 1" in diameter and wrap in plastic wrap. Chill 30 minutes in a freezer or 1 hour in the refrigerator.

Preheat the gas BBQ grill. Melt the remaining butter in a cup in the microwave and add the oil. Brush the steaks with the melted butter and oil. Grill about 6 minutes on each side depending on the temp.

Place a slice of the herb butter on each salmon steak just before removing from the heat and serving.
