Directions
- To make the salmon:
- Prepare barbecue for medium-high heat.
- Sprinkle salmon with salt and pepper. Rub garlic oil and dried oregano over salmon to coat well.
- Once grill is smoking hot, brush grill rack with olive oil and immediately place salmon at 2-o’clock position on grill.
- Cook for 4 minutes without lifting or turning salmon. This will help give salmon a good sear of nice grill marks and make it easier to move.
- Starting at corner of salmon nearest to you, slide a long metal spatula under salmon, turn it over and cook until salmon is just cooked through and all but the very center is opaque.
- Meanwhile, to make the Greek salad:
- Place red wine vinegar in large bowl. Slowly add olive oil and whisk continually to blend. Season vinaigrette to taste with salt and pepper.
- In large salad bowl, toss lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, olives and onions with enough vinaigrette to coat. Season salad to taste with salt and pepper.
- Divide salad among 4 plates. Crumble feta cheese over salads.
- Top salads with grilled salmon fillets. Sprinkle with parsley.
- Drizzle some of remaining vinaigrette over salmon and serve immediately.
