Tips:

  • Use fresh, thick-cut salmon fillets for best results. Season the salmon generously with salt and pepper before grilling to enhance its natural flavor.
  • Preheat your grill to high heat before cooking the salmon. This will help to sear the outside of the fish and prevent it from sticking.
  • Grill the salmon for 4-5 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through. The flesh should be opaque and flake easily with a fork.
  • To make the sassy sauce, whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, Dijon mustard, honey, and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve the grilled salmon topped with the sassy sauce and enjoy!

Conclusion:

This grilled salmon recipe is a delicious and easy way to enjoy this healthy fish. The sassy sauce adds a tangy, creamy flavor that complements the salmon perfectly. Whether you're serving it for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion, this recipe is sure to please everyone at the table.
