Summer is the season, our thoughts turn to outdoor cooking - grilling.
Everyone is familiar with the cooking of grilled meat -- juicy steaks and burgers spicy ribs. But what about the prices of some lighter?
Here are three recipes lighter for barbecues summer - a salmon with a sauce flavored with citrus, vegetables and a light grilled grilled grouper (or any other firm white fish) with an herb crust and lemon flavor.
So when you're in the mood for something a little different and a little on the lighter side, try.
Salmon Grilled citrus
1 / 4 cup honey barbecue sauce with garlic
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons chopped chives
2 teaspoons melted butter
2 teaspoons honey
1 tablespoon lemon rind coffee, finely grated
Salt 1 / 2 teaspoon
pepper to taste
hot pepper flakes (optional)
2 pounds salmon fillets, a large network or in individual portions (which works best with a large network)
Preheat use of the grill to medium-high heat and grease well. Put a piece of nonstick aluminum foil several times and place in baking sheet. Add the barbecue sauce with other ingredients (except salmon). Place the salmon on foil, skin side down.
Brush through the salmon-sauce mixture. Drag aluminum foil on the grill. Cook, covered, without turning for 15 to 17 minutes or until salmon is cooked but still slightly cooked in the center. Brush the mixture with the remaining sauce in the past 5 minutes of cooking.
To serve, cut salmon into portions and use a heavy metal spatula to remove portions of the leaf. Leaves skin behind. Decorating with added chives, if desired.
Makes 6 servings.
Cedar plank Version:
Soak cedar wood in the untreated water for 2 hours. Place boards on the grill and preheat for 5 or 10 minutes or until the wood starts smoking. Place the salmon on cedar and proceed as above. Use the skinned salmon for best results.
Plate of grilled vegetables
1 / 2 cup garlic and herb sauce flavored barbecue (or your favorite marinade)
3 tablespoons melted butter or olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (or 1 teaspoon dried)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme (or 1 teaspoon dry)

4 ears corn, cut in half or thirds if large
1 Pound Assorted squash, like zucchini or yellow or green Patty Pan Squash
Whisk marinade or barbecue sauce with butter, parsley and thyme and mix well. Reserve.
Bring a pot large saltwater to a boil. Working in groups, blanch the potatoes for about 10 minutes. Put the corn for 2 minutes. Upon termination of the vegetables, use a slotted spoon to Transfer to a large bowl of water to cool. Drain well and dry. Discard all the vegetables with the marinade mixture to coat.
Preheat the grill use medium heat. Potatoes roasted corn and squash, turning as needed and basting with any remaining marinade. That vegetables are tender, remove from the grill on a hot plate or dish. The store of the plate of cooked vegetables with paper until the vegetables are cooked.
