Steps:
- Add all ingredients (except salmon fillets and hickory smoked salt) in a shallow dish or gallon-size zip-lock bag. Mix the ingredients with a wooden spoon until well blended. Add the salmon fillets, and let salmon marinate 4-8 hours in the refrigerator.
- When ready to grill or broil, remove salmon from the marinade. It's OK to have some remnants of the marinade on the salmon, but discard the excess marinade. Season both sides of all fillets with hickory smoked salt.
- Place salmon fillets on hot grill, and grill the first side for about 5 minutes. Turn once and grill or broil other side until salmon is done (about another 5-7 minutes). Cooking times can vary depending on thickness of the fillets and the temperature of your grill.

Tips:
- Choose the right salmon. Look for wild-caught salmon that is fresh or frozen. Avoid farmed salmon, as it is often lower in nutrients and may contain contaminants.
- Cook the salmon to perfection. Salmon is best cooked to medium-rare or medium, so that it is still moist and flaky. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough.
- Make the kiwi salsa ahead of time. The salsa can be made up to 2 days in advance, so you can save time on the day you are serving the salmon.
- Serve the salmon with your favorite sides. Grilled salmon goes well with roasted vegetables, rice, or quinoa.
Conclusion:
Grilled salmon with kiwi salsa is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a summer cookout or dinner party. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the kiwi salsa adds a refreshing and tropical flavor. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
