GRILLED SALMON FILETS (a 2 banana difficulty)


Seeing how DFW is now on day 36 of at least 100 degrees & the past 5 days have all set record highs, there's no cooking in the house, just on the grill.  Earlier I showed you how easy it was to Season & Sear Salmon http://www.anymonkeycan.com/2011/02/seasoned-and-seared-salmon.html in the house, now the easiness extends outside of the house to the Grill.  Let me show you how! 

Today, 'this monkey' will be Grilling Salmon Fillets. Let's get started! 

WHAT YOU NEED:
1-1.5 lb Salmon Fillets - ask at the seafood counter to cut into 3-4 pieces
2-3 T Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1-2 t Cumin
Kosher Salt to taste
1-2 t Sugar

WHAT YOU DO:
1.  Pre heat Grill to Medium (about 10 minutes)
2.  Coat bottom of Shallow Dish with Olive Oil.
3.  Place Salmon Fillet skin side up (Making sure the fillet is coated with the olive oil)

4.  Now flip the Salmon skin side down & sprinkle each fillet with Cumin, Salt, & Sugar.



5.  Carefully place the Salmon Skin side UP on the grill for about 2-3 minutes

6.  Using a grill spatula, carefully flip the Salmon Fillets skin side DOWN & continue to cook for 7-8 min.
Tip: If you are interested in the grill cross hatch pattern, then rotate the fillets 90 deg after 2 minutes when cooking skin side up

7.  Remove from the Grill, let rest for about 2 minutes, then serve and enjoy!!


I like my Salmon with a bit of the sear & browning, so that's why I grill skin side UP initially.  You can actually make these, grilling for 10-12 minutes with the skin side DOWN the entire time & skipping skin side UP all together.  Grilled Salmon is quite versatile.  Eating immediately is highly recommended, but I always make extra for left overs.  Salmon can be used in a sandwich with avocado; or with rice/cous cous http://www.anymonkeycan.com/2011/03/salmon-asparagus-cous-cous-3-4-banana.html ; or on a salad.

Well, that's it for today!  'Anymonkeycan' cook and/or grill because this one just did! 

Until next time, your friendly neighborweb monkey!
