Ingredients
  

For the Salmon

Cooking Steps
  1. Preheat your Blackstone griddle to medium heat, around 350°F to 375°F.
  2. Season your salmon fillets generously on all sides with salt and pepper.
  3. Cut a lemon in half; set aside one half for squeezing later, and slice the other half into 1/8" thick pieces.
  4. Pour a tablespoon of high smoke point oil onto the griddle and spread it evenly.
  5. Place the halved lemon and slices onto the griddle and char for about 1 minute.
  6. Carefully place the seasoned salmon fillets skin-side up onto the griddle and cook for approximately 5 minutes.
  7. Flip the salmon fillets over so they are skin-side down and squeeze juice from the charred half lemon over them.
  8. Lay the charred lemon slices atop the salmon fillets and cook for an additional 7-10 minutes.
  9. Once cooked through, remove the salmon from the griddle and transfer to a serving platter.
