• As the fish cooks (3-5 minutes per side), use a brush and mop the marinade onto fish.
• Turn salmon a quarter (90 degrees) after a quarter of the way through cooking. (This will give it nice grill cross hatch marks).
• Flip fish half way though cooking. Add salt and pepper to taste to this side as well.
• Continue to baste the fish with marinade. (Try to use all if possible).
• Turn fish another 90 degrees after 3/4 done cooking.
• Before fish is completely cooked, top it with thinly sliced tomato. Top tomato with fresh basil. Top basil with crumbled goat cheese. Shut the grill for a minute or two before taking fish off. Let rest a few minutes and enjoy!
• Feel free to make the marinade to taste. It should be sweet, and salty, and sour. I did not measure anything out when making this dish. I simply tasted it a few times until it was balanced the way I liked it.
