Grilled Salmon With Broccolini

Submitted by mandabears

"Healthy, easy and delicious. I got this recipe from a Sweet Bay Supermarket recipe card. The fish is moist and very flavorful and the combo of salmon and broccolini is superb. I have used jarred garlic and Minute Maid frozen lemon juice (thawed). If you can't find broccolini, you can used Broccoli Rabe."
