Instructions
 

For the Lemon Garlic Aioli:

  • In a medium bowl add all of the ingredients for the aioli and mix well to combine. Season with additional lemon juice and salt, to taste. Set aside in the refrigerator to allow the flavors to set.

For the Marinade:

  • Add all of the ingredients for the marinade to a large bowl. Whisk to combine. Transfer the marinade to a large ziplock bag and carefully transfer the salmon chunks to the bag with the marinade. Allow the salmon to marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours.

For the Sliders:

  • Outdoor grill– Preheat grill to medium and lightly brush grill grates with oil. Carefully transfer the salmon to your preheated grill, skin-side-dow, discarding any leftover marinade. Cook the salmon for approximately 5-8 minutes per side (time will vary depending on the thickness of your fish). 
  • As the salmon rests, transfer the sliced slider buns to the grill and lightly toat.
  • Remove the buns and top with a thick layer of microgreens, sliced tomato, lemon garlic aioli, and your cooked salmon. Delicious served immediately, or leftover.

Notes

Cutting the salmon into approximately 2x2 inch pieces before cooking, helps avoid a big mess later.  Made with fresh salmon grilled to perfection on mini slider buns and topped with fresh microgreens and creamy lemon garlic aioli.
