Ingredienser

4 salmon fillets (4-6 ounces each)

4 tablespoons olive oil

1 1/2 tablespoons honey

1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 teaspoon lemon zest

2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley

2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves (or 1 teaspoon dried thyme)

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

1/2 teaspoon minced garlic

lemon wedges for serving

Fremgangsmåte

Place the olive oil, honey, soy sauce, lemon zest, parsley, thyme, salt and pepper in a bowl. Whisk to combine.

Reserve 1 tablespoon of the marinade for later use. Add the garlic to the bowl.

Add the salmon and marinade to a resealable freezer bag and seal. Shake to coat the salmon with the marinade.

Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 6 hours.

Remove the salmon from the marinade and scrape off any excess bits of herbs or garlic (otherwise they could burn on the grill!).

Grilling instructions: Preheat an outdoor grill or indoor grill pan over medium high heat. Add the salmon fillets and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side or until salmon is opaque throughout.

Oven instructions: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Place the salmon fillets on a sheet pan lined with cooking spray. Bake for 15 minutes or until salmon is cooked through.

Brush the reserved marinade over the salmon fillets, then serve with lemon wedges if desired.

Notater

Serve this with grilled vegetables, such as green beans, asparagus, broccoli, or zucchini and rice, potatoes, or pasta. If serving with pasta, could cook frozen vegetables in the pasta water, instead of grilling. Just add them in the last few minutes of cooking. Frozen broccoli, green beans, or a vegetable blend would work well.

This recipe could work for any type of fish that can stand up to grilling.

Dill could be used in place of thyme - either dried or fresh.
