Citrus Infused Salmon With a Citrus Pepper Crust. image

We love to soak all our seafood in citrus marinades, but this combo of marinade and dry rub was a special treat! We used our indoor Foreman "infusion" grill, that unfortunately is no longer made but I'm sure any grilling application would produce similar delicious results.
