A family favorite: Spicy, crisp and tender salmon. Started to make it just for two until I made a much larger batch for a summer lunch on a whim and it was perfectly light and flavorful! Hope you give it a try (-:
Ingredients:
2 lbs salmon fillets
2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon fine cajun spices
1/3 cup roasted pineapple and habanero sauce (optional)
Directions:
1. Preheat Grill to 500 degrees on High.
2. Slice salmon fillet into five equal pieces.
3. Place salmon pieces on a sheet of aluminum foil large enough to leave 3 excess all around.
4. Coat salmon with 1 teaspoon olive oil (I prefer using a spray bottle for my olive oil, approximately 5 sprays).
5. Sprinkle same side of salmon with half the spices and rub into fish.
6. If using optional sauce, spread all of the sauce atop spice and rub into fish.
7. Flip the salmon pieces over and coat other side with 1 teaspoon olive oil and remaining spices, rub into fish.
8. Fold edges of foil up and slide onto hot covered grill cooking on high for about 7 minutes. Carefully flip each piece and continue to grill for 5-6 more minutes.
9. Carefully move to serving platter, enjoy hot off the grill with a fresh garden salad.
