Equipment
- Grill or stovetop grill pan
- Mixing bowls
- Measuring spoons and cups
- Basting brush
- Tongs or spatula
- Aluminum foil (optional)
- Baking sheet (if oven grilling)
Ingredients
- 4 salmon fillets 6 oz each
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Lemon wedges for garnish
- Fresh parsley optional garnish
Instructions
- Prep the Marinade: In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Whisk until fully blended.
- Marinate the Salmon: Place salmon fillets in a shallow dish or zip-top bag. Pour the marinade over the salmon, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Preheat Grill or Pan: While marinating, preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.
- Grill the Salmon: Remove salmon from marinade and place on the hot grill, skin side down. Grill for 4-5 minutes per side or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
- Baste During Cooking: Use remaining marinade to baste the salmon during cooking for extra flavor and moisture.
- Serve: Remove from heat, garnish with lemon wedges and parsley, and serve hot.
Notes
- Don’t skip the marinating step—it infuses the salmon with flavor.
- Use fresh salmon for the best taste and texture.
- Avoid overcooking; salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork.
- Let the salmon rest for 2 minutes after grilling to retain juices.
- Use a fish spatula to prevent breaking the fillets during flipping.
