Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon fennel seeds
1/4 cup plus 2 teaspoons (packed) golden brown sugar
3 tablespoons Pimentón de la Vera (Spanish smoked paprika)
1 tablespoon coarse kosher salt
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons dried dill weed
Nonstick vegetable oil spray
1 3 3/4- to 4-pound side of salmon with skin (preferably wild salmon)
Olive oil

Steps:

  • Finely grind fennel seeds in spice mill or coffee grinder. Transfer to small bowl. Mix in next 5 ingredients.
  • Spray grill rack with nonstick spray. Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Brush salmon lightly on both sides with olive oil. Rub spice mixture generously over flesh side of salmon. Place salmon, skin side up, on grill rack; cover and cook until fish is slightly firmer, about 8 minutes. Slide rimless baking sheet under salmon to turn salmon over without breaking. Place another rimless baking sheet atop salmon. Using both hands, firmly hold baking sheets together and invert salmon; slide salmon, flesh side up, off baking sheet and onto grill rack. Cover and grill until just opaque in center, about 8 minutes longer. Using rimless baking sheet, remove salmon from grill. Gently slide salmon, flesh side up, onto platter and serve.

This recipe was a great way to cook salmon. The fennel and dill rub was a great combination, and the salmon was cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe was okay. The salmon was a little dry, and the rub didn't have much flavor. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This was a great recipe for a weeknight meal. It was easy to follow and the salmon was cooked perfectly. The only thing I would change is to add a little more salt and pepper to the rub.
