5 Ingredient Marinated Grilled Salmon Recipes

ASIAN GRILLED SALMON

Steps:

• Light charcoal briquettes in a grill and brush the grilling rack with oil to keep the salmon from sticking.
• While the grill is heating, lay the salmon skin side down on a cutting board and cut it crosswise into 4 equal pieces. Whisk together the mustard, soy sauce, olive oil, and garlic in a small bowl. Drizzle half of the marinade onto the salmon and allow it to sit for 10 minutes.
• Place the salmon skin side down on the hot grill; discard the marinade the fish was sitting in. Grill for 4 to 5 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish. Turn carefully with a wide spatula and grill for another 4 to 5 minutes. The salmon will be slightly raw in the center, but don't worry; it will keep cooking as it sits.
• Transfer the fish to a flat plate, skin side down, and spoon the reserved marinade on top. Allow the fish to rest for 10 minutes. Remove the skin and serve warm, at room temperature, or chilled.

Steps:

• Heat a clean grill to medium temperature.
• While the grill heats, prepare the fish - Whisk together the olive oil, mustard, mayonnaise and chopped herbs in a small bowl. Season the salmon liberally with salt and pepper and then spread the mustard mixture over the flesh of the fillet.
• When the grill is ready, gently transfer the salmon onto the grates. Cover the grill and allow the salmon to cook (without flipping!) until it reaches your preferred doneness (about 15 - 17 minutes for medium depending on the thickness of the fish).
• Using a large metal spatula, remove the fish from the grill and allow to rest for 2 - 3 minutes before serving. Arrange on a platter and garnish with lemon if desired.

MARINADE FOR GRILLED SALMON

Steps:

• Combine all marinade ingredients in large plastic bag, add salmon fillets & marinate for 6-8 hrs before grilling.
• While salmon grills, transfer marinade to small saucepan by pressing through a sieve. This allows the bulk & flavors of the garlic & chutney to join the sauce without making it chunky.
• Over low to medium heat only, add cream cheese & incorporate it into the sauce until you reach your desired consistency.
