PERFECT GRILLED SALMON



Perfect Grilled Salmon image

From America's Test Kitchen, a fool-proof way to grill moist salmon without it sticking to the grill. This is more a method than a recipe, so season to your own taste! McCormick's makes great dry seasonings to sprinkle on, and Montreal Steak seasoning goes great with salmon. I also like their mesquite flavor on this dish.

Time 28m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 salmon fillets, skin-on, 1/2 lb. each
1/4 cup vegetable oil
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Prepare grill: Place sheet of aluminum foil on grill grates, tucking in ends to secure. Pre-heat on high for 15 minutes with lid closed. This gets the grill grates super hot!
  • Remove foil and wipe down grates with oil until black and glossy, about 10 times, not just 2 or 3! This is super important for keeping fish from sticking.
  • Rub fish with a little oil and season to taste on both sides.
  • Place skin side down and grill 3-5 minutes depending on thickness and degree of doneness you prefer. I like med. rare so I do 3 minutes for about 1 1/2 inch fillets.
  • Flip when fish releases from grate on it's own. If it sticks, it is not ready to flip (or you didn't grease the grill enough).
  • Cook another 3-5 minutes on other side or until fish reads 125 degrees, depending on your preference.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest salmon you can find. Fresh salmon should have a bright pink color and a mild, briny smell.
  • If you're using frozen salmon, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight or in a cold water bath for about 30 minutes.
  • Pat the salmon dry with paper towels before grilling. This will help the salmon cook evenly and prevent it from sticking to the grill grates.
  • Season the salmon with salt and pepper, or your favorite herbs and spices.
  • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  • Grill the salmon for 8-10 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through. The salmon is done cooking when it flakes easily with a fork.
  • Let the salmon rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the fish.

Conclusion:

Grilled salmon is a delicious and healthy meal that can be enjoyed all year round. With its rich flavor and flaky texture, salmon is a versatile fish that can be paired with a variety of sides. Whether you're serving it with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad, grilled salmon is sure to please everyone at the table.
