A refreshing triple citrus
marinade flavors salmon fillets prior to grilling. (Note: 1/2
cup of the marinade is set aside for serving with the grilled
salmon.)
Grilled
Citrus Salmon Fillets
- 1/3 cup fresh orange juice
- 1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1/3 cup fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoon brown sugar,
packed
- 1/2 cup finely chopped
onion
- 2 tablespoons peeled,
finely minced fresh ginger
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro
leaves, chopped
- 6 (6-ounce center-cut)
pieces salmon fillets with skin
- Salt and freshly ground
black pepper to taste
- In a blender purée
citrus juices, brown sugar, onion and ginger until smooth. Reserve 1/2 cup marinade.
Transfer remaining marinade
to a large zip-lock style plastic bag and add the cilantro and salmon fillets, seal bag,
removing as much air as possible.
Marinate salmon in refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours.
- Prepare grill.
- Remove salmon from marinade
and discard marinade. Pat salmon dry. Season salmon with salt and pepper. Grill,
skin side down, on an oiled
rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals 4 minutes. Put lid
on grill and grill
salmon until just cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes more.
(Salmon may be grilled in
a hot well-seasoned ridged grill pan with a lid over medium heat.) Carefully transfer salmon
with a metal spatula to
a platter and remove skin.
- Pour reserved juice mixture
over salmon and serve.
Serves 6.
