Firecracker Grilled Alaska Salmon brings a bold, peppery kick balanced by soy and balsamic, with ginger, garlic, and scallions adding aromatic depth. The fish grills up juicy with a lightly charred edge and a touch of sweetness from brown sugar. Ideal for summer cookouts or a lively weeknight dinner when you want bright, spicy flavor.

1

Place the salmon filets in a medium, nonporous glass dish. In a separate medium bowl, combine the peanut oil, soy sauce, vinegar, green onions, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, red pepper flakes, sesame oil, and salt. Whisk well, then pour the mixture over the fish. Cover and marinate the fish in the refrigerator for 4 to 6 hours.
2

Prepare an outdoor grill with coals about 5 inches from the grate, and lightly oil the grate.
3

Grill the fillets 5 inches from the coals for 10 minutes per inch of thickness, measured at the thickest part, or until the fish just flakes with a fork. Turn over halfway through cooking.
