Blackstone Griddle

Ingredients

¼ cup soy sauce or gluten-free tamari
¼ cup oil like avocado oil
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon garlic powder.
¼ teaspoon sea salt
¼ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
16 ounces salmon filets
Oil for the griddle
For serving: Freshly squeezed lemon juice

Instructions

In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, avocado oil, brown sugar, basil, thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Place the fish in a zip-top bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over it.
Refrigerate for 1 hour.

Blackstone Griddle

Preheat the Blackstone griddle to medium-low to low heat (about 350° F).
Liberally coat the griddle with oil.
Add the fish, with the skin side of the salmon down if it has skin.
Cook for about 2 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. (Actual cook time will depend on the size and thickness of the salmon.)
Drizzle with freshly squeezed lemon juice and serve.

Pan-Frying Instructions

Heat a heavy skillet over medium heat and coat with oil.
Add the fish to the skillet, salmon skin side down.
Cook the fish for a total cooking time of about 4 to 5 minutes, flipping halfway through. Use an instant read thermometer to make sure that the center of the flesh has reached the desired doneness.
