Broiled/Grilled Salmon

My husband is not a fan of fish but I am!!! So I will find ways to prepare fish for myself. Well of course, for my guests too!

The sauce can be prepared in advance and freeze it for future use. All you need is a slice of fresh salmon, garlic, soy sauce and some other seasonings. 





Ingredients

  • Salmon
  • Salt 
  • Lemon Pepper to taste
  • Garlic Powder to taste
  • 6 cloves of garlic, chopped
  • 1/3 cup of soy sauce
  • 1/3 cup of brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup of water
  • 1/4 cup of olive oil

Directions

  1. Rub some salt on the salmon. Rinse well. Pat the salmon dry. Lay the the salmon on the chopping board.
  2. Apply and rub the lemon pepper and garlic pepper on the both side of the salmon fillets. Slice the salmon if you got something like mine, one huge piece. 
  3. In a bowl, stir together the chopped garlic, soy sauce, brown sugar, water and olive oil till the sugar dissolve. 
  4. Place the salmon fillets into a Ziploc bag. Pour in the soy sauce mixture, seal and coat the fillets with the sauce. Make sure the fillets are well coated. 
  5. Refrigerate it for at least 2 hours.  
  6. You may grill the salmon or wrap it in aluminium foil to oven baked it. 


  • If you are going for the grill, 6 minutes per side for the fillet, depending on the thickness of the fish. Always flesh down first. 
  • If you are going for the oven baked, make a foil packet to hold individual salmon and 2 to 3 tbsp of the sauce and close it up. Baked at 220 degrees celsius for around 15 minutes. 
If you are a sauce person, you can boil the leftover sauce into a pan and add a little cornflour to thicken it. Pour it over the salmon fillet and serve. 


This is a great recipe to use when preparing salmon. Especially in foil packets. This poaches gently in its sauce and juices. It always comes out tender and flavourful.
