Number Of Ingredients 10

4 salmon fillets (6 ounces each)
1 tablespoon minced fresh gingerroot
1 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
2 teaspoons grated orange peel
1-1/2 teaspoons grated lime peel
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Place each salmon fillet on a double thickness of heavy-duty foil (about 12 in. square). Combine the ginger, cilantro, garlic and peels; spoon over salmon.
  • In a small bowl, combine the vinegar, soy sauce and pepper; drizzle over salmon. Fold foil around fish and seal tightly.
  • Grill, covered, over medium heat for 15-20 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Open foil carefully to allow steam to escape.
  • Yield: 4 servings.
