SWEET GRILLED SALMON



Sweet Grilled Salmon image

So tasty and sweet. Almost a teriyaki flavor. My kids eat this GONE, when I make it I can't make enough. Awesome with a green salad and ranch dressing. **Prep time does not include the 2 hours to marinade**

Categories     High Protein

Time 25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lbs salmon fillets
lemon pepper
garlic powder
salt
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup water
1/3 cup vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Remove skin and scales from salmon. Season salmon fillets with lemon pepper and garlic powder. In a small bowl stir together soy sauce, brown sugar, water, and vegetable oil until sugar is dissolved. Place fish in a large zip bag with soy sauce mixture, seal and turn to coat. Refrigerate at least 2 hours, turn often (the longer it marinates the stronger the flavor, I marinate mine all day).
  • Preheat grill for medium heat. Lightly oil grill grate. Place salmon on the preheated grill, discard marinade. Cook salmon for 6-8 minutes per side, until fish flakes easily with fork.
  • *Alternate cooking method: Sometimes I prefer to bake the salmon rather than grill. Preheat oven to 400, place salmon on baking sheet, discard marinade. Bake about 15 minutes, until fish flakes easily.

Provided by evelynathens

Categories     Southwestern U.S.

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 salmon fillets, skinned (2 inches wide)
1/2 cup jalapeno jelly
2 scallions, rough cut
1/2 cup cilantro, stems okay
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon lime zest
2 tablespoons butter
aluminum foil, folded into a little tray

Steps:

  • Put the jelly, scallions, cilantro, garlic, and lime zest into a food processor. Pulse the processor until the mixture is finely pureed.
  • Put in a small saucepan over medium heat, bubbling away for 2-3 minutes. Add to the butter and mix while it all melts into the sauce. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
  • Put the salmon face-down (presentation side) onto the foil. You are putting it face-down because during cooking, you will turn the fish over one time only, therefore ending-up with the pretty side face-up so you can re-glaze at the end.
  • Now brush the less-attractive bottom side (which is now face-up) with the sauce.
  • Put the aluminum foil trays with your salmon onto the grill. Cook for 6-8 minutes. Carefully flip the salmon fillets over with tongs.
  • With a spoon, put a thick layer of the glaze on top and let the salmon finish cooking.
  • Plate the salmon. Add a little more glaze on top and garnish it with lemon and cilantro.

SWEET AND SPICY GRILLED SALMON



Sweet and Spicy Grilled Salmon image

The decadent-tasting "good" fat in salmon complements the sweet-spicy Buffalo glaze. The skin gets caramelized and crisp on the grill as the sauce drips onto it. It's delicious, but can be discarded to save fat and calories. (The numbers below include the skin.) A crisp and refreshing celery slaw is dressed with the same sauce, made creamy with light mayo, and brightened with onions and chives.

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons hot sauce, such as Frank's
1 tablespoon packed dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons light mayonnaise
1 tablespoon snipped chives
8 stalks celery, very thinly sliced in half moons on an angle
1/2 small red onion, very thinly sliced
Four 5-ounce center-cut skin-on salmon fillets, about 1-inch thick
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Vegetable oil, for oiling the grill

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill or grill pan on medium high.
  • Mix together the hot sauce, brown sugar, paprika and cayenne in a small bowl. Transfer 1 tablespoon of the mixture to a large bowl and whisk in the mayonnaise; set aside the rest of the sauce. Add the chives, celery and onions to the bowl with the mayonnaise and toss well.
  • Sprinkle the salmon with salt and pepper. Brush the grill grate lightly with oil. Lay the salmon on the grill, skin-side up, and cook until distinct grill marks appear and the salmon releases easily from the grate, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn and brush the fish with some of the reserved sauce. Continue to cook the fish, brushing the pieces periodically with the sauce, until the salmon fillets are glazed and just cooked through, 13 to 15 minutes more.
  • Transfer the fillets to individual plates and serve with the celery slaw.
