Grilled fresh salmon is one of our favorite family dinners. This recipe marinates salmon filets that are spiced with Lemon Pepper, Garlic Salt and Ginger Powder. The spiced filets are then marinated in a sweetened teriyaki- flavored sauce and golden grilled to seal in the flavors. It's a truly delicious way to enjoy one of the most popular types of fish.
LEMON PEPPER, Ginger Powder, Garlic Salt
Ingredients:
1 - 2 lbs salmon filets
2 tsp Lemon Pepper
1 tsp Garlic Salt
2 tsp Ginger Powder (divided)
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup light brown sugar
1 Tblspn rice vinegar
1/3 cup water
1/4 cup vegetable oil
Directions:
Rub all sides of the salmon with the Lemon Pepper, Garlic Salt, and 1 tsp of the Ginger Powder. Set aside and make the marinade by mixing together the soy sauce, brown sugar, vinegar, water, oil and 1 tsp of the Ginger Powder. Reserve 1/4 cup of this marinade and set it aside. Pour the rest of the marinade into a resealable plastic bag and place the seasoned salmon filets into the bag. Refrigerate the bag for at least two hours. After refrigerating the marinated salmon, lightly oil a large cast iron skillet and heat it to medium high. Once the skillet is heated (oil will start to smoke), place the salmon fillets non-skin side down on the hot skillet. Cook for about 4 minutes, flip the filet and then cook for about 3 minutes on the skin side. Serve the cooked filets immediately and, if desired, drizzle each filet with a small amount of the reserved marinade.
