Ingredients
- 16 to 24 ounces salmon, fillets (4 fillets, about 4-6 oz each)
- Seasoning, citrus (1 teaspoon, or any all purpose seasoning)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- Olive oil (to grill the fish)
- SAUCE
- 1/2 cup barbecue sauce, prepared
- 2 tablespoon
- 2 orange juice
- 1 tablespoon orange marmalade
- 1/4 teaspoon chipotle seasoning (powder, or chipotles in adobo sauce, optional)
How to Make
-
Step 1: Sauce ... Add the BBQ sauce, orange juice, marmalade and optional chipotle powder or sauce to a small bowl; and, mix to combine. Set to the side.
-
Step 2: Salmon ... Remove from the fridge, and let it come to room temperature. You never want to cook with cold fish. Then, season with the citrus (or all purpose) seasoning, salt, and pepper.
-
Step 3: Grill ... I really feel that an outdoor grill or grill pan works best for this recipe. Grill, on medium high heat, flesh side down for 2-3 minutes; then, turn over. Immediately brush the top with some of the BBQ sauce. Flip again for 2 minutes, then flip back to the skin side down. Brush again with the BBQ sauce and finish cooking; about 5-7 minutes. Make sure to brush again with the BBQ sauce. The cooking time can vary according to the thickness of the salmon.
-
Step 4: Serve and ENJOY! ...Remove the salmon from the grill, and let it rest a couple of minutes before serving. This is so quick and easy - serve with just about anything.
