  • 2-3 skinless salmon fillets
  • ¼ cup pitted kalamata olives
  • ¼ cup queen or green olives
  • 3 tablespoons capers
  • 2 tablespoons julienne sun-dried tomatoes
  • 3-4 garlic cloves
  • 3-4 basil leaves
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 2 sprigs fresh oregano
  • ½ cup red cherry or grape tomatoes, sliced in half
  • ½ cup yellow cherry or grape tomatoes, sliced in half
  • 1 baguette, sliced into 1”-2” slices
  • Unsalted butter
  • Optional: Quail Eggs
  • Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper
  1. On a cutting board, roughly chop the kalamata and green olives, capers, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, and basil together. Transfer the chopped ingredients to a mixing bowl. Add the lemon zest, lemon juice, a pinch of salt and pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil. Mix everything thoroughly to combine.
  2. Lightly season both sides of the salmon fillets with salt and pepper.
  3. Heat a medium-high heat Blackstone grill or pan. Add a tablespoon of butter and a small drizzle of olive oil to the hot surface. Cook the salmon fillets for 3-4 minutes per side or until fully cooked.
  4. Place a bit more butter on the grill or pan, along with the oregano stems. Toast the sliced baguette until lightly golden.
  5. Optionally, fry a few quail eggs for garnish.
  6. To plate, spread some of the olive mix (tapenade) onto the toasted baguette slices. Top with a few sliced tomatoes. Gently break the cooked salmon into bite-sized pieces and arrange them over the tapenade. Garnish with fried quail eggs if desired. Serve and enjoy!
