Add a delicious salty flavour to buttery grilled salmon with an easy, make-ahead tapenade that can be prepared in less than 20 minutes. The fish is a snap to make on an outdoor grill as well as inside on a grill pan. The tapenade calls for kalamata olives, but any kind of brined olive will work, such as Castelvetrano or Niçoise. You can purchase them pitted or unpitted. While the pitted might be more convenient, their flavour is saltier and flesh is mushier because they take on more of the flavour of the brine.
