Recipe: Grilled Key West Salmon

Key West Salmon Recipe

Despite the fact that my boyfriend won’t touch it, Salmon is a staple here in the Zylka household.

This is my go-to recipe (ironically, it works just as well with chicken if you have a picky eater in the house).

Enjoy!

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup lime juice (about 2 limes)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon celery seeds
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • Few drops hot pepper sauce
  • 4 salmon steaks (1 1/2 pounds total), each 3/4-inch thick
  • 1/4 cup chopped green onion
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1/4 teaspoon honey

 

Directions

Combine lime juice, oil, salt, celery seeds, black pepper and hot-pepper sauce in a small bowl. Place salmon in a shallow dish. Pour 1/4 cup lime juice mixture over fish; turn to coat. Refrigerate 10 minutes, turning once. Reserve remaining mixture for sauce.

Prepare a charcoal grill with hot coals, or heat a gas grill to high, or you could even heat up your broiler. Position the grill rack 6 inches from coals or broiler pan 3 inches from heat.

Stir green onion, lemon juice, water and honey into reserved lime juice mixture.

Grease a grill rack or rack of a shallow roasting pan. Place salmon on rack. Drizzle with half of lime juice mixture from marinade dish. Grill over hot coals on a covered grill 2 minutes per side or until cooked through, or broil 4 minutes per side. Serve salmon with green onion sauce.
