Author Notes:

This simple marinade for grilled salmon gives it a slightly sweet flavor that's really terrific. Don't marinate the fish too long, 30 minutes is good, but no more than an hour or you won't taste the fish.

If you have leftover cooked salmon, try what I do and roll it into a sushi roll with rice and asparagus and a little spicy mayonnaise. Before you know it, you'll making this salmon just for this purpose.

This marinade works equally well on chicken or pork.

Ingredients:

1 large salmon filet

Marinade:
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup orange juice
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon crushed red peppers (optional)

Instructions:

Number of Servings: Depends on the size of your salmon filet

For ease of marinating and grilling, we cut our salmon filet in half.

Mix all marinade ingredients together. Marinate salmon for 30-60 minutes. If you are using the marinade for chicken or pork, you can leave the meat, refrigerated, in the marinade for several hours.

Grill salmon over medium coals about 5 minutes per side or until cooked to desired doneness. I personally prefer my salmon somewhat rare.
