Total Time:20 minutes
Yield:4 servings
Ingredients
Salmon Fillets: 4 (about 6 ounces each)
Olive Oil: 2 tablespoons
Turmeric Powder: 1 teaspoon
Lemon: 1 large
Garlic: 2 cloves, minced
Ginger: 1 teaspoon, grated
Honey: 1 tablespoon (or maple syrup for vegan)
Red Pepper Flakes: 1/4 teaspoon
Salt and Pepper: To taste
Fresh Parsley: Chopped
Instructions
Prepare the Salmon: Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Drizzle with a little olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Make the Turmeric Lemon Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, turmeric powder, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, grated ginger, honey, and red pepper flakes. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F or 200°C). Make sure the grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.
Grill the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets on the preheated grill, skin-side down if using skin-on fillets. Grill for about 4-6 minutes per side, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Baste with Sauce: During the last few minutes of grilling, brush the salmon generously with the turmeric lemon sauce.
Serve and Enjoy: Remove the grilled salmon from the grill and let it rest for a minute or two. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
