Salmon Filet Recipes

• • ½ tsp salt (kosher salt works best)
• • ½ tsp onion powder
• • ½ tsp high quality garlic powder (NOT garlic salt)
• • ¼ tsp Hungarian paprika (sweet, NOT hot)
• • ½ tsp dill weed (dried and chopped finely)
• • ½ tsp lemon pepper (black pepper or white pepper will not work)
• • ½ tsp dried oregano
• • ½ tsp dried basil
• • 2 Tbsp good quality dry white wine
• • Juice of ½ lime
• • 1 tsp melted butter (can also use mayonnaise)
• • 1 ½ lbs of 1 inch thick salmon filet
• • Vegetable oil spray (for foil, to prevent sticking)

Combine salt, onion and garlic powders, dill weed, lemon pepper, oregano and basil in a small bowl and set aside until fish has been prepared.

Form heavy, grill weight aluminum foil into a tray shape, ensuring that there is enough room for the salmon fillet on the tray. It should be doubled in thickness and should have the dull side up so that the heat is reflected and the food will not be as prone to burning. Spray entire inside of tray with vegetable spray so that salmon will not stick while cooking.

Place salmon skin side down in foil tray. If salmon has been skinned place salmon with the boned side down. If using fresh lime, squeeze each half over the fillets to coat evenly. Repeat with white wine, making sure all of the fish has been lightly sprinkled. Spread fish with melted butter or mayonnaise if you are using it instead of butter.

Sprinkle herb mixture over top of the salmon and then top with the sweet paprika.

Transport foil tray to grill and place on preheated grill. Cover and cook. Cooking time will depend on thickness of fillets. Fish should be done after approximately 10 minutes of cooking for every inch of thickness. Check color and ensure that fish flakes easily when cut with a fork.

Use a spatula to transfer fish to platter and top with lime slices to serve.
