  • 1 tbsp Capers (rinsed, chopped)
  • 3 stalks Green Onion (finely chopped, divided)
  • 1 lb Salmon Fillet (skinless, chopped into small chunks)

  1. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, lemon juice, capers, and 1/3 of the green onions. Mix well. Keep in the refrigerator until ready to use.
  2. Preheat the grill to high heat.
