Simplest Grilled Salmon Recipes

SIMPLE GRILLED SALMON

Steps:

• Prepare the grill. If you have a gas grill, turn it to high heat. If you have a charcoal grill, set it up for partial direct high heat.
• When the grill is hot, clean the grates and wipe with cooking oil to prevent the fish from sticking.
• Prepare the salmon by drizzling olive oil on each filet.
• Add the salt, pepper and garlic. Squeeze lemon over each filet.
• Start with the skin side up (flesh side down) and sear on direct high heat for 1-2 minutes.
• Use a spatula to turn the fish and place over indirect medium heat for 5-7 minutes.
• Cook until the fish reaches 145 degrees F in the thickest part of the filet. The salmon should be opaque and flake easily with a fork.

Steps:

• Build a medium-high fire on a clean gas or charcoal grill. (If the grill isn't clean, the salmon will stick to the grate.)
• Season the salmon with salt and pepper, lightly oil the grate of the grill, then place the fillets skin-side up over the fire and cook for about 2 to 3 minutes, until lightly browned.
• Gently flip the salmon over and cook 3 to 4 minutes more for medium rare. You can cook a little longer if you'd like, but take care not to overcook.

• Season salmon fillets with lemon pepper, garlic powder, and salt.
• In a small bowl, stir together soy sauce, brown sugar, water, and vegetable oil until sugar is dissolved. Place fish in a large resealable plastic bag with the soy sauce mixture, seal, and turn to coat. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
• Preheat grill for medium heat.
• Lightly oil grill grate. Place salmon on the preheated grill, and discard marinade. Cook salmon for 6 to 8 minutes per side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
