Firecracker Grilled Salmon

A blend of sweet and spicy, this salmon dish is a great one to try next time you light up the grill. Since there is sugar in the marinade, make sure to oil your grill grates well, or wrap each fillet loosely in heavy foil and place directly on the grill to prevent sticking.

Method

In a small bowl, whisk together peanut oil, vinegar, green onions, soy sauce, ginger, brown sugar, sesame oil, chile flakes and garlic.


Arrange salmon fillets in a wide, shallow dish and pour marinade over them to coat evenly.


Cover and refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours.


Prepare a grill for medium heat cooking, oiling the grill grates as needed.


Remove salmon from the marinade, shaking off any excess.


Arrange salmon and peppers on the grill grates.


Grill salmon, flipping once, until fish is just cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, about 8 to 10 minutes. (Alternatively, wrap each fillet in foil to form a packet and grill for 20 to 25 minutes.)


Grill peppers, flipping frequently until soft and evenly charred, about 8 minutes, then thinly slice.


Garnish grilled salmon with sliced peppers and reserved green onions before serving.
