This salmon is marinated in an Asian-style mixture with just enough spice and heat to give it a little kick. Perfect for any occasion and a great way to spice up a healthy choice. Serve with grilled vegetables, brown rice, or quinoa.
Ingredients
-
1 1/2 pounds salmon steaks or fillets
For the Marinade:
-
1/4 cup (60 milliliters) peanut oil, or vegetable oil
-
2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) soy sauce
-
2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) balsamic vinegar
-
2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) green onions, chopped
-
1 tablespoon(15 milliliters) sambalchile paste, or 1 teaspoon (5 milliliters) red pepper flakes
-
2 teaspoons (10 milliliters) brown sugar
-
2 cloves garlic, minced
-
1 teaspoon grated ginger
-
1 teaspoon (5 milliliters) sesame oil
-
1/2 teaspoon (2 1/2 milliliters) salt
Steps to Make It
-
Combine marinade ingredients in a small bowl until sugar and salt have dissolved.
-
Place salmon in a large resealable bag (or two, if needed).
-
Pour marinade mixture over top, making sure fish is well coated.
-
Force all the air from the bag and seal.
-
Place in the refrigerator to marinate for 1 hour.
-
Preheat grill for medium high heat.
-
Make sure to oil the grill grates well before grilling fish. This will keep the fish from breaking during the cooking process.
-
Remove fish from bag and place on a hot grill.
-
Brush liberally with some of the marinade and discard the rest.
-
Cook over a high heat for about 4 to 5 minutes per side or until done (between 145 F and 150 F). Time might vary because of the thickness of the fish.
-
Once fish has cooked, remove from grill and serve with your favorite sides.
