Great for Kids Too!

Grilled Salmon (all recipes)

1 ½ lbs salmon fillets 1/3 cup soy sauce
½ tsp lemon powder 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
¼ tsp garlic powder 1/3 cup water
salt to taste ¼ cup vegetable oil

Sprinkle fillets to liking with lemon pepper, garlic powder, and salt.

In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, brown sugar, water, and oil. Place fish in a sealable plastic bag; pour soy sauce mixture over fish and seal. Marinate in fridge at least 2 hours. You can turn the bag once or twice while marinating to evenly distribute juices.

Remove fillets from marinade (and discard remaining liquid) and place them skin side down on a sheet of tin foil on top of a pre-heated grill. Grill salmon approximately 15 minutes or until done. When fish is done, it will be a solid bright pink color and separate easily with a fork.

If you do not have a grill, you can also cook the salmon on a baking sheet (I usually line with foil) in the oven at 400 degrees for about 25-40 minutes depending on the thickness of the fillets. This marinade can also work for chicken.
