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.

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.

This is a grilled salmon recipe that is used at the Saint Matthew Parish picnic every year in Seattle, Washington. It works well with any cut of salmon for grilling, however we typically use salmon fillets. Use wild sockeye or king salmon.

Time 1h5m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 lemon, juiced
½ teaspoon grated fresh ginger root
2 tablespoons honey
⅓ cup chopped fresh basil leaves
1 tablespoon finely chopped shallots
1 (3 pound) salmon fillet, with skin

Steps:

  • Make a pan out of aluminum foil by doubling up layers of foil large enough to hold your fillet. Place the foil onto a cookie sheet. Lay the fillet onto the foil with the skin side down. In a small bowl, stir together the oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, ginger, honey, basil and shallots. Pour over the salmon and let it marinate while you preheat the grill, about 20 minutes.
  • Preheat a grill for medium-low heat. Slide the foil with the salmon off of the cookie sheet and onto the grill. Cover with the lid and grill the fillet for 10 minutes per inch of thickness, about 20 minutes. Salmon should be able to flake with a fork, but not be too dry. When you serve the salmon, the skin will stick to the foil and your grill will remain clean. Simply slice and use a spatula to scoop the fillet off of the skin to serve.

Categories     Toddler Friendly

Time 20m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 lbs wild alaskan salmon fillets (8 4-oz filets)
kosher salt
fresh ground black pepper
1/2 cup peanut oil
3 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
3 tablespoons sherry wine
4 tablespoons scallions, chopped (green onions)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup pure honey
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
1 teaspoon onion powder
2 tablespoons lemon zest
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 dash liquid smoke flavoring
1 pinch kosher salt
cooking spray (to oil the grates) or vegetable oil (to oil the grates)
1 lemon, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Wash the salmon filets and pat dry with paper towels; salt and pepper to taste. Place the filets in a large glass casserole dish.
  • In a medium size mixing bowl, combine together the peanut oil, soy sauce, vinegar, sherry, green onions, brown sugar, honey, garlic, ginger, onion powder, lemon zest, red pepper flakes, sesame oil, liquid smoke and salt. Whisk ingredients together, blending well.
  • Pour marinade over the salmon filets and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Marinate in the refrigerator for 4 to 6 hours.
  • After marinating, generously coat each filet with the marinade and wrap separately in heavy duty aluminium foil.
  • Before firing up your outdoor grill/BBQ, lightly oil the grates. Cook one of two ways (1) COALS: Set your coals about 5 inches from the grate; bbq the salmon fillets 5 minutes per side, or until fish just flakes with a fork. (2) GAS GRILL: Preheat grill for high heat. Place filets on the grates and grill for 7-8 minutes each side, or until fish is flaked easily with a fork.
  • COOK'S TIPS: Take care not to overcook your salmon - It will lose its juices and flavor if cooked too long. Discard any leftover marinade, OR bring it to a boil, cook for 5 minutes, and spoon over salmon when serving.
  • For a complete meal, serve the grilled salmon fillets with lemon wedges, a chilled bottle of Merlot, scoop of fluffy white rice, and a lightly-dressed fresh spinach salad. Be sure to brace yourself for NO LEFTOVERS!
