BROWN SUGAR & DIJON GRILLED SALMON



Brown Sugar & Dijon Grilled Salmon image

This is probably my favorite grilled salmon recipe - and my kids used to beg for it whenever they saw salmon in the fridge. Although I prefer wild sockeye salmon, this recipe is much better suited to the thicker farm-raised salmon (I know, I know...). I normally just eyeball the ingredients, and often make more than called for,...

Provided by Lori Loucas

Categories     Seafood

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 Tbsp brown sugar
2 tsp unsalted butter
1 tsp honey
1 Tbsp soy sauce
1 Tbsp olive oil
2 Tbsp coarse dijon mustard
1 Tbsp fresh ginger, grated or finely minced
1 salmon fillet, skin on, abut 2 pounds

Steps:

  • 1. Tear off a large sheet of heavy duty aluminum foil and make a "boat" out of it - big enough to hold the fillet - with the sides going up about 3/4 inch. If you don't have heavy duty foil, just use two layers of foil to make your boat. Preheat your grill - you will need medium heat.
  • 2. In a small sauce pan, place the brown sugar, butter and honey. Stir until melted, then remove from heat. Stir in the soy sauce, mustard, olive oil and ginger. Let cool for about 5 minutes.
  • 3. Put the boat on a large cutting board (this makes it easy to transfer the boat to the grill), then place the salmon, skin side down, on the foil boat. Spread the brown sugar & mustard sauce evenly over the fish.
  • 4. Transfer the salmon boat to your grill and cook until the edges start to brown and the fish is opaque and flakes easily. This will take 15-20 minutes, depending on the thickness of your salmon.
  • 5. Note: Because of the sugar and honey, the glaze that drips onto the foil will burn. It's best to make your salmon boat as form fitting as possible, leaving only a 3/4 inch border between the fillet and the boat "sides".
  • 6. Carefully remove the salmon boat from the grill, or you can serve directly from the grill. Cut into individual serving pieces. You don't have to cut through the skin. Just use a spatula to lift each piece away from the skin and onto a serving plate.

BROWN SUGAR GRILLED SALMON



Brown Sugar Grilled Salmon image

Part of our annual trek to the mountains is cooking out streamside. This year I decided to try salmon and found this recipe on another site. I scaled it back to feed 2 and marinated the fish for about 6 hours. It was spectacular. You can baste the fish while it's cooking if you wish, but not necessary. We used a grill basket and oiled it first to prevent sticking.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon fillet. Look for a fillet that is about 1 inch thick and has a deep pink color. Avoid fillets that are thin or have white streaks, as these may be dry or overcooked.
  • Marinate the salmon for at least 30 minutes. This will help to infuse the salmon with flavor and keep it moist during cooking.
  • Use a hot grill. The grill should be heated to medium-high heat before cooking the salmon. This will help to sear the outside of the salmon and prevent it from sticking to the grill.
  • Cook the salmon for 8-10 minutes per side. The salmon is done cooking when it flakes easily with a fork.
  • Let the salmon rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the fish.
  • Serve the salmon with your favorite sides. Some popular sides for grilled salmon include roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple green salad.

Conclusion:

Brown sugar Dijon grilled salmon is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The salmon is marinated in a mixture of brown sugar, Dijon mustard, olive oil, and herbs, then grilled until cooked through. The result is a moist and flavorful salmon that is sure to please everyone at the table.
