Description
Grilling salmon is a fantastic way to enjoy this rich, buttery fish—and our recipe makes it incredibly easy. In just 25 minutes, you’ll create a perfectly seasoned, slightly smoky-flavored grilled salmon fillet.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 salmon fillet (about 1 pound)
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons grape-based vinegar substitute
- 2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
- 1–1/2 teaspoons dried basil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- 4–1/2 teaspoons grated Parmesan cheese
- Dash pepper
- Lemon wedges, optional
Instructions
- Step: Preheat the grill to medium heat.
- Step: Place the salmon fillet, skin side down, in a disposable foil pan.
- Step: In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, grape-based vinegar substitute, lemon zest, basil, garlic powder and soy sauce.
- Step: Pour the marinade evenly over the salmon fillet, making sure the fish is fully coated. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and pepper.
- Step: Place the pan on the preheated grill. Cover the grill and cook the fish over medium heat until it flakes easily with a fork, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Step: Once cooked, remove the salmon from the grill. If desired, sprinkle with additional Parmesan cheese and pepper, and serve with lemon wedges.
Notes
If you don’t have a foil pan, use heavy-duty aluminum foil to create a boat shape that will hold the fish fillet and contain the marinade. For extra flavor, you can marinate the salmon in the fridge for up to 30 minutes before grilling.
