GRILLED SALMON STEAKS
Steps:
- Prepare grill by lighting 4 quarts of charcoal (1 starter chimney's worth), or turning gas grill to medium-high.
- Examine steaks for pin bones by rubbing fingers over surface of meat. If found, remove with bone tweezers or pliers reserved for culinary uses.
- Using a sharp paring or boning knife, trim bones from the cavity side of the steak. Trim the stomach flaps so that 1 side is missing about 2 inches of skin and the other, 1 inch of meat. Roll the skinless section up into the hollow of the cavity, then wrap the other around the outside to form a round resembling a filet mignon. Tie in place with 2 passes of butcher's twine. (Do not tie it too tight or fish will pop out during cooking.)
- Combine cumin, coriander, fennel and peppercorns on a double thick piece of aluminum foil and toast over grill, shaking gently until seeds become fragrant. Crush seeds in mortar and pestle or pour into spare pepper grinder. Coat steaks lightly with oil, season with salt, then liberally grind toasted seeds on both sides of steaks.
- Quickly wipe hot grill grate with a rag or towel dipped in a little Canola oil, then grill fish to medium rare, about 3 minutes per side. (Fish should be well colored on the outside and barely translucent at the center.
- Serve steaks alongside simple salad dressed with "Veni, Vedi, Vinaigrette."

GRILLED SALMON STEAKS
This is a terrific way to fix salmon...and it's so easy to do. The marinade mellows the fish flavor, and the dill sauce is a wonderful complement. I once served this recipe to 12 people from the Pacific Northwest who declared it was the best salmon they'd ever eaten! -Deb Essen, Victor, Montana

Tips:
- To ensure the salmon steaks cook evenly, they should be of uniform thickness. If necessary, use a sharp knife to trim the steaks to an even thickness.
- The salmon steaks should be cooked over medium-high heat. This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the fish while cooking the inside through.
- Do not overcrowd the grill. Leave some space between the salmon steaks so that they can cook evenly.
- Use a fish spatula to flip the salmon steaks. This will help to prevent the fish from sticking to the grill.
- Cook the salmon steaks until they are opaque in the center and flake easily with a fork. This will usually take about 8-10 minutes per side.
- Serve the salmon steaks immediately with the cilantro-garlic yogurt sauce.
Conclusion:
Grilled salmon steaks are a delicious and healthy meal that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. They are simple to prepare and can be cooked in under 30 minutes. The cilantro-garlic yogurt sauce is a perfect complement to the salmon steaks, adding a refreshing and flavorful touch. This recipe is sure to become a favorite in your household!
