Slammin' Salmon

Slammin' Salmon features tender grilled fillets soaked in a tangy-sweet marinade of balsamic, citrus, and soy with ginger, garlic, and warm spices. The result is a juicy, punchy bite with subtle heat and aromatic depth, perfect for a lively weeknight dinner or casual cookout. Serve hot off the grill with fresh sides to balance its bold, savory character.

Slammin' Salmon
  1. 1

    Mix balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, and soy sauce with salt, brown sugar, ground ginger, paprika, pepper, and red pepper flakes until the salt dissolves. Stir in the garlic, green onions, sesame oil, and peanut oil until evenly combined.

  2. 2

    Pour the marinade into a resealable plastic bag or a glass bowl. Add the salmon to the marinade and gently toss to coat. Refrigerate and marinate for 2 to 24 hours.

  3. 3

    Set up an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.

  4. 4

    Drain excess marinade from the salmon fillets. Grill until firm and opaque, about 4 minutes per side.
