This grilled salmon is simple, but where it came from is not…thanks to my late Uncle Arnie (…and his ex-wife) this dish has become a staple in our family. Black rice is the perfect complement to this Ginger Soy Salmon.

4 hours 25 minutesIngredients
Yield: 6 - 4 ounce servings
- 2 lb. salmon filet, skin on
- ½ C tamari soy sauce
- ½ C canola oil
- 1 T brown sugar
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 juice of lemon
- 1 tsp. fresh ginger, chopped
Instructions
Step 1
Combine all ingredients and marinate fish 2-4 hours. Reserve some marinade to pour over fish as a sauce.
Step 2
Heat and oil grill. Sear flesh side down first to make grill marks. Turn and grill skin side down until fish is cooked.
Notes
Alternative Method: Don't have a grill? No problem. This can be baked for approximately 25 minutes @ 400 degrees F. If you want it browned, then place it under the broiler for a few minutes. When cooked, the internal temperature of fish should be 135 degrees F.
Think Out of the Ice Box: This marinade can also be used with skirt steak.
