Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

3/4 cup fresh orange juice
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup chicken stock
1 garlic clove, minced
2 tablespoons orange marmalade
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon light brown sugar

Pinch kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing
4 (6-ounce, 1-inch thick) salmon fillets
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper

Steps:

  • Glaze: Bring all of the ingredients to a boil in a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat, stirring to melt the preserves and to keep the mixture from burning.

  • Salmon:
  • Heat a grill to medium-high heat.

GRILLED SALMON WITH CITRUS BUTTER



Grilled Salmon with Citrus Butter image

Provided by Patrick and Gina Neely : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

Oil, for greasing grill
1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 teaspoons lemon zest
2 teaspoons lime zest
Four 6-ounce fillets center-cut salmon, skin removed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Add the softened butter to a mixing bowl and stir until smooth. Add the lemon and lime zest and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Blend all the ingredients until smooth and completely mixed.
  • Place a sheet of plastic wrap out on your workspace. Spread the butter across the plastic wrap and roll into a log, twisting the ends to seal. Place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to chill. This will give you a nice clean round of butter to top the fish with. Alternatively, you can leave the butter in a small bowl and dollop the butter on top of the fish once it's grilled.
  • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  • Sprinkle the salmon on both sides with salt and pepper. Oil the grill grates with a clean tea towel. Grill the salmon for 4 minutes, and then flip and cook the second side for another 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a platter. Top each fillet with a slice of the citrus butter while the fish is still hot so it melts right over the top.

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 9

Four 6-ounce skin-on salmon filets
Extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 navel orange, peeled, pith removed and cut into segments

Steps:

  • Preheat a gas grill to medium-high or prepare a medium-hot fire in a charcoal grill.

This is a fantastic way of grilling Salmon, and the sauce is simply fantastic - To make a cedar plank version, soak an untreated cedar plank in clean water for 2 hours. Place the plank on the grill over high heat and preheat for 5-10 minutes, or until the wood begins smoking. Place the salmon on the cedar and proceed as directed in the recipe. For best results, use skinless salmon.
