Grilled Tequila Lime Salmon Recipes

TEQUILA LIME GRILLED SALMON

Steps:

• Combine the cilantro, tequila, lime juice, triple sec, olive oil, garlic, pepper, and salt in a zip-top plastic bag or shallow dish. Add the salmon to the tequila marinade and turn to coat it in the liquid. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for 1 hour, turning the salmon after 30 minutes. Preheat and grease the grill. Remove the salmon from the marinade. Place on the hot grill and cook for 8 minutes per inch of thickness (measure at the thickest part). Turn the fish once during the cooking time. Remove from the grill and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil grate. Remove the salmon from marinade, and shake off excess. Discard remaining marinade.
• Grill until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 5 to 10 minutes per side depending on thickness.
