Instructions
- Grab some wild Alaskan salmon from your local seafoodery and fire up the grill!
- Heat your grill to about 375 degrees F and prep your salmon by drizzling each fillet with olive oil and seasoning, to taste, with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
- Secure your fish, skin-side down in a grill basket and grill for about 5 minutes.
- Flip the basket an grill skin-up for approx 8 minute until salmon is a bright pinkish-orange and completely opaque.
- No grill? No problem! You can bake your salmon in a foil pouch or try the sear-n-bake technique I use for my salmon tacos!
- Whichever technique you use for the salmon, be sure to gently remove the skin after cooking.
- It should slide off easily when you insert a knife between the salmon and the skin. Just gently swipe through and you're good to go.
- If you're using take-and-bake ciabatta like I am, pop two in the oven for five minutes until golden and crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Yum!
- Using bakery fresh rolls instead? Lightly toast them up on your grill with a little butter or oil if you'd like or enjoy them as is!
- Slather one side of the ciabatta with homemade or storebought mayo or aioli and spread your favorite pesto for the other. Add a small mountain of fresh arugula and your hot and ready salmon.
- Pile on the veggies and introduce it to your face. Enjoy!
