Teriyaki salmon











* 4 salmon steaks (about 6 oz. each), skinned, or 1-1陆 lbs fillet, skinned


* 1.25 cups soy sauce


* 1/3 cup sake (Japanese rice wine), mirin (sweet Japanese cooking wine), or sherry


* 6 Tbsp granulated sugar


* 3 garlic cloves, minced or pressed


* 1 Tbsp minced or grated ginger root


* 1/3 cup vegetable oil





Combine all the ingredients for the marinade in a small bowl and stir until the sugar dissolves.





To prepare the salmon: quickly rinse the salmon under cold running water and pat dry with paper towels.





Divide each steak into 2 pieces by cutting along either side of the central bone and then discarding the bone; alternatively, cut the fillet into 8 equal pieces.





Place the salmon in a shallow glass or ceramic container and pour 1 cup of the marinade over the fish.





Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours, turning the fish occasionally.





Let come to room temperature before cooking.





Prepare grill.





Remove the salmon from the marinade, reserving the marinade.





Place the fish on an oiled grill rack.





Position the fish 5 to 6 inches from the heat source, turning once and brushing with the reserved marinade several times, until the flesh is just opaque, 3 to 5 minutes per side, depending on thickness.





Serve the salmon at once with reserved marinade as dipping sauce.What's your favorite salmon recipes?

Number of Servings: 4





Four 6-ounce salmon fillets


Kosher salt and pepper

1 clove garlic, minced


1 cup all-natural chicken broth


Juice from one lemon (about 3 tablespoons)


1 tablespoon all-purpose flour


2 tablespoons capers, drained


2 tablespoons finely minced fresh parsley





Preheat the oven to 375掳F. Sprinkle both sides of the salmon with salt and pepper, place on a baking dish, and cook until the salmon flakes easily with a fork, about 12 to 14 minutes. While the salmon is cooking, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Whisk together the broth, lemon juice and flour until well blended and add to the saucepan. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring constantly. Continue to simmer and stir gently until the liquid thickens slightly, about 2 minutes. Stir in the capers and parsley. Place the cooked salmon on a plate and drizzle with the sauce. Serve with rice and broccoli on the side.

I chop up fresh garlic, a bunch of fresh dill, scallions, chopped onion and add to that some olive oil, salt and pepper and a bit of lemon juice. Mix it all up and spread it over salmon fillets then either BBQ it on a cedar plank or bake it in the oven.
I like the cajun salmon recipe from here:

My favorite way to cook salmon is to bake it on foil - at 350, skin-up - with a little soy sauce.
