Step 3

Preheat bbq to medium high and grease grill. Bbq salmon turning once, until cooked through, about 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Remove to platter and spoon reserved lime juice mixture over salmon. Serve immediately.

Step 4

If you wish to broil salmon, place on a rack set over a pan. Broil about 4 inches from heat, turning once, until salmon is cooked through, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.

I baked the salmon 375f for 12 minutes, lovely and moist. I used "Jail Island" salmon - it is a pale salmon but loaded with flavour. I love the lime/ginger combination with the jalapeno giving a biy of a kick. Thanks Derf for a lovely recipe   Made again and loved it. I did two things different - because it was pink salmon and it is softer I didn't marinate it with the lime. I poached the fish with the marinade with a lid on the pan cooked 10 minutes  over medium heat. delicious Thanks again Derf
