Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon butter or margarine, melted
  • 1 tablespoon olive or vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 large salmon fillet (about 2 lb/1 kg), cut into 8 pieces

Steps

  •  
    1
    In small bowl, mix all ingredients except salmon.
  •  
    2
    In shallow glass or plastic dish, place salmon. Pour marinade over salmon. Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes but no longer than 1 hour.
  •  
    3
    Heat coals or gas grill. Remove salmon from marinade; reserve marinade. Place salmon, skin side down, on grill. Cover and grill over medium heat 10 to 20 minutes, brushing 2 or 3 times with marinade, until salmon flakes easily with fork. Discard any remaining marinade.

Expert Tips

  • Tip 1
    To remove skin from cooked fish, grab skin from tail end with tongs or fingers and gently peel off.
  • Tip 2
    Marinate fish no longer than 30 minutes. Fish will become mushy if it is in an acid marinade longer than that.
  • Tip 3
    Variation: The salmon can also be marinated and broiled instead of grilled.
  • Tip 4
    Success: Fish generally takes about 10 minutes to grill for each inch of thickness. Add more time if the fillet is thicker; if you are grilling two thinner pieces, grill the fish for slightly less time.
