Ingredients
- 1 side fresh salmon, boned but skin on (about 3 lbs.)
- 2 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
- 3 Tbsp. soy sauce
- 6 Tbsp. olive oil
- 1/2 tsp. minced garlic
Preparation
Step 1
Light charcoal briquettes in a grill and brush the grilling rack with oil to keep the salmon from sticking.
While the grill is heating, lay the salmon skin-side down on a cutting board, and cut it crosswise into 6 equal pieces. Whisk together the mustard, soy sauce, olive oil and garlic in a small bowl. Drizzle half of the marinade onto the salmon and allow it to sit for 10 minutes.
Place the salmon skin-side down on the hol grill. Discard the marinade the fish was sitting in. Grill for 4 to 5 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish. Turn carefully with a wide spatula and grill for another 4 to 5 minutes. The salmon will be slightly raw in the center, but don't worry; it will keep cooking as it sits.
Transfer the fish to a flat plate and spoon the rest of the marinade on top. Allow the fish to rest for 10 minutes. Remove the skin and serve warm, at room temperature or chilled.
