Grilled Salmon with Brown Sugar Lemon Glaze (Alaskan)
We eat salmon all summer long, and this is our favourite way to fix it. The mild sauce - brushed on as the fish grills - really enhances the taste.
2 Tbsp. butter
2 Tbsp. brown sugar
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 Tbsp. lemon juice, freshly squeezed
2 tsp. soy sauce
½ tsp. black pepper, freshly cracked
4 (6 oz) salmon steaks, 1” thick
In a small saucepan, combine the first six ingredients. Cook and stir until sugar is dissolved.
Meanwhile, grill salmon, covered, over medium-hot heat for 5 minutes. Turn salmon; baste with the butter sauce. Grill 7-9 minutes longer, turning and basting occasionally, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
Makes 4 servings.
