Firecracker Salmon OAMC image

Had this at my sisters and had to find the recipe on the web. Even folks who don't care for salmon love this recipe. I tweaked it a little to lower the sodium and fat. Update: I bought some frozen salmon, made the marinade, and poured into Seal-A-Meal bags with the frozen salmon, and put all in the freezer. Defrosted in the frig overnight. Yum, yum. Pulling the air out with a Seal-A-Meal or Food Saver draws the marinade deep into the fish. Also used the marinade on a very thick sirloin steak for two. Wow! Going to try it on chicken, too.

Time 20m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 (4 ounce) salmon fillets
1/2 cup peanut oil
1/4 cup light soy sauce
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup green onion, chopped
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger
2 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Whisk together all ingredients except filets in medium bowl.
  • Place filets in a glass baking dish, cover with marinade, cover, and refrigerate 4 to 6 hours.
  • OR: Place filets in freezer bags (either all in one, or separately for individual servings) with marinade; if using separate bags, divide marinade equally.
  • Place bags in freezer (remove from freezer the day before serving day and thaw in refrigerator).
  • Prepare outdoor grill with coals about 5 inches from grate; oil or spray grate lightly.
  • Grill 10 minutes per inch of thickness, turning halfway through cooking.
  • NOTE: I substitute olive oil for the peanut oil, and then bake or broil the filets (olive oil does not stand up well to the intense heat of an outdoor grill).

I've tried a lot of salmon recipes, but this one is definitely my favorite. The glaze is so flavorful and the salmon is always cooked perfectly.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my salmon turned out dry and overcooked. I'll try it again and see if I can get it right.

I was really excited to try this recipe, but I was disappointed with the results. The salmon was dry and the glaze was too sweet.

I followed the recipe exactly and the salmon turned out great. The glaze was a little too spicy for my taste, but I'll definitely make it again with less cayenne pepper.

This salmon was a hit with my family! The glaze was sweet and spicy, and the salmon was cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making this again.
