Grilled Salmon

Grilled Salmon

In my opinion, this is PERFECT grilled salmon, but there's way too many recipes out there calling themselves Perfect This and Perfect That. STILL. Sergey makes it this way every time, and every time it comes out just so...

Tip: We use a Hamilton Beach indoor grill when cooking the salmon.

Nutrition: 950 calories per 1 lb chonk.

Ingredients:

  • Fresh raw salmon (not frozen). Preferably farm-raised, good quality.
  • Your preferred seasonings
  • Non-stick spray

Directions:

  1. Scale the salmon in preparation and wash it clean. To scale the salmon, scrape a sharp, smooth-edged knife across the scales in the opposite direction as their growth until they are all scraped off. Check the salmon for stray bones.
  2. Turn the grill on all the way to Sear and wait until it is ready.
  3. One the grill is ready (green light) spray the grill with non-stick spray.
  4. Place the salmon skin-side down on the grill and move it around to coat the grill more. Shut the grill and cook for five minutes.
  5. Open the grill and flip the fish. At this point you could remove the skin and either discard it or snack on it right there. Shut the grill and cook the other side for five minutes.
  6. Open the grill, flip the fish again, shut the grill, cook for another five minutes.
  7. The fish is done! Pull out, season as desired, and enjoy hot and flaky and absolutely perfect.
