A simple soy sauce and brown sugar marinade, with hints of lemon and garlic, is the perfect salty-sweet complement to rich salmon fillets. Even my 9-year-old loves this recipe!

Recipe provided by:

Allrecipes

Ingredients

1 tablespoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon minced garlic
freshly ground black pepper to taste
5 tablespoons soy sauce
4 tablespoons dark brown soft sugar
5 tablespoons water
4 tablespoons vegetable oil
700g (1.5 lb) salmon fillets

Preparation method

1. In a small bowl, stir together lemon zest, garlic, pepper, soy sauce, sugar, water and vegetable oil until sugar is dissolved. Place fish in a large resealable plastic bag with the marinade, seal, and turn to coat. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
 
2. Preheat barbecue for medium heat.
 
3. Lightly oil cooking grate. Place salmon on the preheated barbecue, and discard marinade. Cook salmon for 6 to 8 minutes per side, or until it flakes easily with a fork.

    Tweak: CYNDIEGRAN Made it healthier:

    My husband really liked this one. I used 5 T lemon juice and 1/4 t. black pepper. I cut the soy sauce to 4 T. to lessen the salt flavour and used only 1 T. olive oil to cut calories. I also sprayed the grate with olive oil to keep the salmon from sticking. Turned out wonderfully.

  • Delicious! I added some extra ginger and fresh red chilli. Easy way to make salmon that little bit different.

    Excellent recipe. The soy sauce and brown sugar blend wonderfully with the salmon flavour.
