Serves: 6 Total Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 side fresh salmon, boned but skin on (about 3 pounds)
  • For the marinade:
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 3 tablespoons good soy sauce
  • 6 tablespoons good olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic

Instructions

1

Light charcoal briquettes in a grill and brush the grilling rack with oil to keep the salmon from sticking.

2

While the grill is heating, lay the salmon skin side down on a cutting board and cut it crosswise into 4 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.

3

Place the salmon skin side down on the hot grill; discard the marinade the fish was sitting in. Grill for 5 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish. Turn carefully with a wide spatula and grill for another 5 minutes. The salmon will be slightly raw in the center, but don't worry; it will keep cooking as it sits.

4

Transfer the fish to a flat plate, skin side down, and spoon the reserved marinade on top. Allow the fish to rest for 10 minutes. Remove the skin and serve warm.
