Grilled Lemon Salmon

• 1 large lemon
• 2 teaspoons olive oil plus additional for the grill
• 2 teaspoon seasoned salt of your choice - I used lemon pepper seasoning
• 1 large skin-on salmon fillet (2-3 lbs)
• 2 tablespoons chopped chives
• 1 teaspoon crushed red chili

Cut the lemon in half. Juice half of the lemon and slice the other half into ¼-inch slices. Mix the juice with the 2 teaspoons of olive oil and seasoned salt of your choice.

Preheat the grill to very high (500°F). Brush the salmon with the lemon and oil mixture. Grill the salmon (using more oil as needed), skin side down, covered, until the skin is golden and crispy, about 3 minutes. Flip the fish, and grill, uncovered, to desired degree of doneness, 2 to 3 minutes for medium-rare. Carefully flip the fish once more and arrange the reserved lemon slices over the fish and sprinkle with chives and crushed red chili. Remove to a pan and allow to let cool for 3-5 minutes before serving.
