Instructions

  1. Pat salmon dry, sprinkle on salt and pepper.
  2. Make marinade by combining lemon juice, soy sauce, brown sugar or honey, dijon mustard and garlic in a gallon zip lock bag.
  3. Place fish in the bag with marinade and let marinade for 2-3 hours.
  4. After fish has marinated, preheat the grill to medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Place salmon on the grill, skinless-side down and discard salmon marinade.
  5. Cook salmon for a few minutes, just long enough to get grill marks and then flip so the salmon is skin-side down. Cook for 8-10 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
  6. Remove from grill and serve warm.

Notes

  • You can use a grill pan instead! 
  • Don't have a grill? You can use a grill pan instead! 
  • Short on time? You can marinate the salmon for only 30 minutes if you're short on time. It just won't have time to soak up as much flavors. 
  • Soy sauce: You can use tamari for a gluten-free option or coconut aminos if you prefer a soy-free alternative.
  • Sweetener: Coconut sugar, maple syrup or agave nectar can be used in place of brown sugar or honey for a different type of sweetness.
  • Garlic: Only have garlic powder on hand? Use 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder instead of 2 cloves.
