1/2 cup honey
2 -3 tablespoons pureed chipotle chiles in adobo
1 1/2 lbs salmon
heavy duty aluminum foil
nonstick cooking spray, kosher
salt and pepper
1 lime (to garnish)

Steps:

Remove salmon from the refrigerator 15 minute before cooking. Heat grill to 375°F
Stir honey and chipotle puree in a small bowl until well combined.
Cut 2 pieces of wide, heavy-duty aluminum foil about 6-in. longer than the salmon side. Stack the foil pieces (shiny side down) on a baking sheet and spray generously with cooking spray.
Place the salmon, skin side down, in the middle of the foil. Fold the foil sides and ends up (1 to 2-in.) to make a shallow pan around the salmon, leaving at least a 1-in. margin around the fish. Season salmon with salt and pepper.
Carefully transfer the foil pan to the center of the preheated grill. Do not cover the salmon or close the foil over the salmon. Close grill cover and cook for 5 minute Spread the glaze on the salmon (1 tablespoons per salmon portion or 1/3 Celsius per salmon side).
Close grill and continue to cook about 5 to 7 minute more. Cook just until fish is lightly translucent in the center. It will finish cooking from retained heat. Remove from the grill and let rest a few minutes before serving.
Garnish with lime zest and serve with lime wedges.
Alternate Cooking Method: Salmon can also be roasted in an oven preheated to 375°F or pan-seared and finished in the oven. Cook just until lightly translucent in the center; be sure to let the salmon rest a few minutes before serving.
