Instructions:
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

- In the last few minutes of cooking, add the cherry tomatoes and olives onto the grill and let them warm up.
- When done, remove the salmon from the grill and plate it up with the grilled tomatoes and olives on top. Sprinkle some fresh parsley for that pop of color.
