Description
A never-fail recipe for grilling salmon or steelhead. Prepare the marinade at home and grill your catch streamside or back at camp.
Recipe courtesy of Steamboat Inn, Thyme and the River cookbook. http://www.thesteamboatinn.com
Ingredients
- 4 lb 1 whole fresh salmon, filleted with head and tail on
- 1⁄4 c vegetable oil
- 2 T lemon juice
- 3 T soy sauce
- 1 clv garlic, minced
- 1⁄2 t dried thyme
Instructions
At Home: Combine the oil, lemon juice, soy sauce, garlic and thyme. Store in your cooler in a leak-proof container.
Streamside: Place the salmon fillets in a glass or other non-corrosive baking pan. Pour the marinade over the fillets and marinate for one hour, turning the fish occasionally.
The Barbecue: Cover the barbecue grate with aluminum foil. Remove the fillets from the baking pan, reserving the marinade, and place skin side down on the foil. Basting with reserve marinade, grill the fish over medium heat 20-25 minutes until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Do not turn the fish.
Serving: When the fillets are cooked, your should be able to transfer them to a serving platter, leaving the skin behind on the foil!
Notes
Over the years, Steamboat Inn has presented salmon to their guests in many forms. They now feel that marinating and barbecuing salmon is the best way to retain its fresh flavor. The technique they developed is a "never fail" method. The fish remains moist, and the fresh salmon flavor is unencumbered by rich sauce. The Steamboat Inn
