Categories     main-dish

Time 34m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 side fresh salmon, boned but skin on (about 3 pounds)
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons good soy sauce
6 tablespoons good olive oil
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic

Steps:

  • Light charcoal briquettes in a grill and brush the grilling rack with oil to keep the salmon from sticking.
  • While the grill is heating, lay the salmon skin side down on a cutting board and cut it crosswise into 4 equal pieces. Whisk together the mustard, soy sauce, olive oil, and garlic in a small bowl. Drizzle half of the marinade onto the salmon and allow it to sit for 10 minutes.
  • Place the salmon skin side down on the hot grill; discard the marinade the fish was sitting in. Grill for 4 to 5 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish. Turn carefully with a wide spatula and grill for another 4 to 5 minutes. The salmon will be slightly raw in the center, but don't worry; it will keep cooking as it sits.
  • Transfer the fish to a flat plate, skin side down, and spoon the reserved marinade on top. Allow the fish to rest for 10 minutes. Remove the skin and serve warm, at room temperature, or chilled.

Valuable Tips for Making Asian Grilled Salmon Recipes

Salmon is a popular fish that is high in omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and many other nutrients. When it comes to cooking salmon, grilling is one of the easiest and tastiest ways to prepare it. Asian grilled salmon recipes are particularly enjoyable as they combine the rich flavor of salmon with the savory taste of garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and other Asian spices. Here are some valuable tips that can help you to make an excellent Asian grilled salmon dish:
1. Choose the right type of salmon
When it comes to grilling salmon, choosing the right type of salmon is crucial to get the best results. There are various types of salmon available, including Chinook, Coho, Sockeye, and Pink. If you want to make an Asian grilled salmon recipe, Coho and Sockeye salmon are the best options as they have firm flesh that holds up well on the grill, and their flavor is not too overpowering. Additionally, these types of salmon have a beautiful red color that makes them visually appealing.
2. Use fresh ingredients
Using fresh ingredients is key to making a delicious Asian grilled salmon dish. When shopping for ingredients, make sure to choose fresh salmon and vegetables. The fresher the salmon, the better it will taste. The same is true for vegetables. Using fresh ginger, garlic, cilantro, and other herbs can really enhance the flavor of the dish.
3. Marinade the salmon beforehand
Marinading the salmon before grilling is another essential step in making an excellent Asian grilled salmon dish. Marinading the salmon not only adds flavor but also helps to tenderize the fish. There are many marinade recipes available online, and you can choose the one that suits your taste. Some popular marinades for Asian grilled salmon include soy sauce, ginger, garlic, sesame oil, and honey.
4. Preheat the grill
Preheating the grill is an essential step in grilling salmon properly. This ensures that the grill reaches the optimal temperature needed to cook the salmon evenly. Before placing the salmon on the grill, make sure that it's clean and lightly oiled. This prevents the salmon from sticking to the grill.
5. Grill the salmon over medium heat
Grilling the salmon over medium heat is key to getting that perfectly grilled crust, while still cooking the salmon all the way through. Grilling salmon over high heat may cause the salmon to burn on the outside while remaining raw on the inside. However, grilling salmon over low heat may cause the salmon to become mushy and fall apart.
6. Grill the salmon for the right amount of time
Grilling salmon for the right amount of time is crucial to achieve the desired texture and flavor. Most Asian grilled salmon recipes suggest grilling the salmon for about 4 to 5 minutes on each side. However, the cooking time may vary depending on the thickness and size of the salmon.
7. Don't overcook the salmon
Overcooking salmon can result in a dry, stringy, and tasteless dish. Therefore, it's essential to pay close attention to the salmon while grilling and avoid overcooking. When the salmon is cooked properly, the flesh should be somewhat firm and should flake easily when you gently touch it with a fork.
8. Serve the salmon with the right sides
One of the great things about Asian grilled salmon is that it can be served with a variety of sides. Some popular sides that go well with grilled salmon include steamed rice, roasted vegetables, stir-fried noodles, or a simple salad. You can also garnish the salmon with fresh herbs, lime wedges, or sesame seeds. In conclusion, making a delicious Asian grilled salmon dish requires attention to detail, fresh ingredients, and the right grilling techniques. By following these valuable tips, you can create an amazing meal that is sure to impress your family and friends.
