Equipment
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.
Notes
Storage
Leftovers may be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. You can reheat the salmon in the microwave or serve it cold on a salad for a light lunch. While it is safe to freeze cooked fish, I do not recommend it due to the deterioration of the texture.Nutrition
