Grilled Salmon Wrapped in Lemon and Bay Leaves

This grilled salmon wrapped in lemon and bay leaves is a visually stunning and aromatic way to prepare a whole fillet. By encasing the fish in citrus and fresh herbs, you create a natural parcel that infuses the salmon with a delicate, savoury fragrance while protecting the flesh from the direct heat of the barbecue. The result is exceptionally moist, tender fish with a bright, zesty finish that highlights the natural oils of the salmon.

As a heart-healthy choice, this dish is rich in omega-3 fatty acids and uses minimal added fats, relying instead on the steam created by the lemon slices. It is an impressive centrepiece for a summer garden party or a light weekend lunch. Serve this nutritious main alongside some crushed new potatoes and a crisp green salad for a complete, wholesome meal that feels truly special.

Ingredients for Grilled Salmon Wrapped in Lemon and Bay Leaves

  • 4 3/110g packages fresh bay leaves, divided

  • 6 to 7 lemons, very thinly sliced into rounds, divided

  • 450g centre-cut salmon fillet with skin

  • Sale grosso kosher

  • Olio d'oliva (per condire)

  • spago da cucina

  • Large fish-grilling basket

Arrange eight 24-inch-long pieces of kitchen string, side by side and 1 1/2 inches apart, on surface. Overlap bay leaves atop strings in rectangle about same size as fish. Top bay leaves with overlapping rows of lemon slices. Sprinkle fish skin with coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper; place fish, skin side down, on lemon slices. Sprinkle fish flesh with coarse salt and pepper; drizzle with olive oil. Top with overlapping rows of lemon slices, then bay leaves. Tightly tie strings, securing lemon slices and bay leaves to fish. Place fish packet in grilling basket; close basket (basket does not have to close completely in order to support fish). DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 hours ahead. Chill salmon in basket. Bring to room temperature before grilling.

Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Grill fish in basket until just firm to touch and thermometer inserted into thickest part registers 57°C, holding basket sides together to turn fish, about 20 minutes per side. Transfer fish to platter, with string knots up. Remove strings, bay leaves, and lemons from top side. Drizzle with oil; serve.
