Ingredients:

2 cups green beans
460g
1/2 red onion
80g
1 tbsp lemon juice
5g
1 tbsp fresh parsley
5g
1 tsp mustard
5g
1/4 cup olive oil
60g
salt & pepper to taste
1.50 lb salmon
680g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Green Beans:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- Add the green beans and cook for about 3-4 minutes, until they are bright green and just tender.
- Drain and immediately transfer them to an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Drain again and set aside.
2. Make the Salad:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the green beans and thinly sliced red onion.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, chopped parsley, mustard, and olive oil until well combined.
- Pour the dressing over the green beans and onion, tossing gently to coat.
- Season the salad with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside while you cook the salmon.
3. Prepare the Salmon:
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper to taste.
- Brush the grill grates with a little olive oil to prevent sticking.
- Place the salmon on the grill, skin side down if it has skin, and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fillets, until the salmon is cooked through and has nice char marks.
4. Serve:
- Arrange the cooked salmon fillets on plates.
- Serve with a generous portion of the bean and parsley salad on the side.
5. Garnish and Enjoy:
- Optionally, garnish with additional chopped parsley or a wedge of lemon for extra freshness.
- Serve immediately. Enjoy your delicious and healthy chargrilled salmon with bean and parsley salad!

Tips:

- Make sure to preheat your grill to medium-high to ensure the salmon cooks evenly and gets those beautiful char marks.

- For a more flavorful salad, let the green beans, red onion, and parsley mixture marinate in the dressing for at least 10-15 minutes before serving.

- When grilling the salmon, oil the grill grates to prevent the fish from sticking.

- If you prefer a more tender green bean, blanch them in boiling water for 2-3 minutes and then immediately transfer them to an ice bath before adding them to the salad.

- Feel free to adjust the seasoning to your taste; adding a touch of garlic or using different types of mustard can bring a new dimension to the dish.

Enjoy your chargrilled salmon with bean and parsley salad! This dish not only promises a burst of flavors but also ensures you get a nutritious and balanced meal. Pair it with a glass of white wine or a refreshing iced tea for the perfect dining experience.
