Grilled Salmon with Tomato, Cucumber and Caper Salsa

This vibrant grilled salmon with tomato, cucumber and caper salsa is a wonderful choice for those seeking a light yet satisfying meal. By marinating a whole side of salmon in zesty lemon, aromatic cumin and shallots, the fish stays incredibly moist while developing a delicious charred finish on the barbecue. The accompanying salsa provides a crisp, refreshing contrast, with the briny pop of capers and sweetness of yellow peppers balancing the rich oils of the fish.

As a heart-healthy main course, this dish is packed with nutritious ingredients and fresh Mediterranean flavours. It is an ideal centrepiece for alfresco dining or a wholesome weekend lunch with friends. Serve the salmon on a large platter with the colourful salsa spooned generously over the top, perhaps accompanied by some crushed new potatoes or a simple green salad.
