GRILLED FRESH SALMON
~ adapted from Recipe Zaar
3 - 4 pounds fresh salmon
3 Tbsp. olive oil
1/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup dry white wine or vodka
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice and zest
2 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
1 Tbsp. fresh chopped thyme (1 heaping tsp. dried)
1/2 tsp. cracked pepper
Prepare gas or charcoal grill. Combine all ingredients except salmon and whisk to blend. Pour over salmon and marinate at room temperature 30 minutes. Grill salmon skin side down. Brush often with glaze while grilling until salmon is opaque but still moist-looking in center, about 7 minutes or depending on outside grilling temperature and thickness of fish. (Don't overcook as it as it will continue to cook when taken from grill.) Delicious with roasted redskin potatoes.
(6-8 servings)
