Easy grilled Copper River Salmon, tender, flaky, and full of flavor! Yield:
4 servings Ingredients:
16-24 ounces Copper River Salmon fillets
1 teaspoon liquid smoke flavoring
Fresh, coarsely-ground black pepper
1 teaspoon minced garlic, or about 2 cloves
olive oil
Salt
Instructions:
1. Rinse salmon and pat it dry. With skin-side-down, lightly sprinkle liquid smoke over the salmon. Sprinkle freshly-ground black pepper over the salmon, along with the minced garlic.
2. Drizzle with olive oil to coat, and sprinkle generously with salt.
3. Pre-heat grill on HIGH for 10-15 minutes. Place salmon, flesh-side-down, on grill and grill with lid down on MEDIUM heat for about 8 minutes (for thin fillets; a few minutes longer for thicker fillets).
Flip salmon after 4 minutes of grilling time has passed. Salmon is done when it flakes apart easily with a fork and is hot in the middle. Don’t over-cook, or it can be dry.
Serve hot with some cooked rice and grilled veggies or a salad!
