Light caramelization of brown sugar on the grill adds an exquisite sweet touch, while butter provides juiciness. This sophisticated yet easy-to-make delicacy is perfect for both a romantic dinner and a festive table. Serve with fresh vegetables, herbs, and lemon slices to highlight the freshness and harmony of flavors. Grilled marinated salmon is a true delight for gourmets, combining texture delicacy with rich aromas.
