Grilled Salmon with Sweet Chili Glaze
Sweet and spicy. Light and savory. This Grilled Salmon with Sweet Chili Glaze is a perfect example of mixing flavors together, and having them work together perfectly.
Ingredients
- 20 oz Salmon
- a few drops of sesame oil
- 2/3 cup Sweet Chili Sauce (I used Mae Ploy) found in the Asian Isle
- 1 teaspoon Mirin (Rice Wine Vinegar)
- 1 teaspoon Hoisin
- 1 tablespoon chives (I used garlic chives)
- 1/2 teaspoon Seafood Seasoning (Old Bay)
- Salt and fresh cracked pepper to taste
Instructions
- If using cedar planks, you will need to get them soaking for AT LEAST 30 minutes prior to them going on to the grill.
- Get your grill going, and set to cook over medium, direct heat.
- While waiting on the grill, make the glaze; combine the chili sauce, mirin, and hoisin. Set glaze to the side.
- Put sesame oil over the salmon, then season with salt, pepper, and seafood seasoning.
- Place planks on grill grates, then lay salmon on planks (skin side down)
- Allow salmon to cook for about 20 minutes. The ends of the salmon will start to turn white-ish.
- Brush on one layer of glaze, and let cook for 5 minutes.
- Brush on another layer of glaze, and wait another 5 minutes.
- Garnish with chives, and remove salmon from planks to plate.
- Drizzle with remaining glaze, and serve.
