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.
