Broiled Salmon with Lemon Compound Butter

For salmon, line a large rimmed pan with foil; lightly spray with cooking spray. Pat salmon dry with paper towels; place in prepared baking. Let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, for compound butter, beat butter, shallot, 3 Tbsp. herbs, and lemon zest and juice in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium for 1 to 2 minutes or until light and fluffy. Season to taste with salt and pepper; set aside.

Place oven rack 6 in. from heat. Preheat boiler to HIGH.

Brush salmon with mayonnaise; sprinkle evenly with 2 Tbsp. herbs and season with salt and pepper.

Broil salmon for 5 to 6 minutes or until salmon reaches 145 degrees. Remove from oven.

To serve, top each warm salmon portion with 1 to 2 tsp. lemon compound butter. Serve with tomatoes and asparagus. Garnish with additional herbs, if desired.

Store remaining butter for another use in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 3 days or in the freezer up to 1 month.
