Hi everyone!
Tomorrow we are having Glazed Grilled Salmon for dinner. I have mentioned before that I don't eat salmon but my husband says I cook it really well. The key is finding good recipes. This one looks easy and good. On the side I'll be making Herb Rice and Green Beans and Mushrooms. The rice recipe is from the Quick & Healthy Carb Conscious Cooking cookbook that I checked out from the library.
Glazed Grilled Salmon
Alana
1 1/2 pounds salmon fillets
lemon pepper to taste
garlic powder to taste
salt to taste
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup water
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1. Season salmon fillets with lemon pepper, garlic powder, and salt.
2. In a small bowl, stir together soy sauce, brown sugar, water, and vegetable oil until sugar is dissolved. Place fish in a large resealable plastic bag with the soy sauce mixture, seal, and turn to coat. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
3. Preheat grill for medium heat.
4. Lightly oil grill grate. Place salmon on the preheated grill, and discard marinade. Cook salmon for 6 to 8 minutes per side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

Green Beans and Mushrooms - These weren't bad at all. It was pretty quick and easy although I didn't like having to use two pans. That would really be my only complaint. The kids actually ate these.
Herb Rice Blend - This was just ok but I didn't follow the recipe the way it was written. I just threw everything in my rice cooker (with regular brown rice) and did it that way. The rice turned out fine but it tasted like brown rice. None of the herb flavors came through at all.
Glazed Grilled Salmon - Simple, good! My husband is the salmon eater and he enjoyed this. I do this marinade with salmon a lot and it always comes out perfect. I don't eat the salmon but I am the one who cooks it and I think it looks better when baked. It looked so charred and sad on the grill but my husband said it was good.
