Ingredients
- 2 tbsp of rich dark brown sugar
- 2 tbsp of tangy apple cider vinegar
- 2 tbsp of smooth olive oil
- 1 tsp of zesty Dijon mustard
- ½ tsp of freshly cracked coarse black pepper
- 6 fillets of salmon (each weighing 3 ounces), thawed
Step 1
Mix together a delightful marinade by combining brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, olive oil, Dijon mustard, and a pinch of pepper in a bowl.
Step 2
Place your fresh salmon fillets into a shallow glass dish, then drizzle half of the marinade over them, saving the rest for later. Cover the dish and let it chill in the refrigerator for about an hour to soak up all those flavorful elements.
Step 3
Get your outdoor grill ready by preheating it to medium heat and giving the grate a light coating of oil. Before grilling, discard any leftover marinade from the glass dish to avoid any contamination.
Step 4
Grill the marinated salmon on the prepared grate, occasionally brushing it with the reserved marinade to enhance its taste. Cook until the fish easily flakes with a fork, typically taking around 4 to 6 minutes of grilling time.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Keep your salmon fillets fresh by storing them in a sealed container lined with paper towels to absorb excess moisture.
- 2. To infuse maximum flavor, marinate the salmon in a mixture of honey, soy sauce, and garlic in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
- 3. Utilize airtight containers or vacuum-sealed bags to store the honey glaze for future use, ensuring it stays fresh and ready to impart its sweet and savory goodness to your salmon.
