Grilled Pine Nut and Feta Encrusted Salmon
This is the perfect start to the barbecuing season. Salmon is a healthy alternative to hot dogs and steaks that usually take a place on the grill. Filled with omega-3 fatty acids, the salmon is enriched by a flavourful pine-nut and feta spread on top help keep the salmon tender and moist. Dill freshens the richness of the fish, nuts, and feta and the lemon zest and juice liven the mixture to balance out all the flavours. My inspiration comes from living on the West Coast where salmon is bountiful. Living near Granville Island's Public Market in Vancouver, BC, I go there to buy the freshest ingredients to create new and exciting recipes for every season. This dish encorporates Mediterranean influences and unites them with a West Coast flare. I hope you enjoy this dish!
