7 Ways to Dress Up Grilled Salmon
Try topping your salmon with these robustly flavored sauces.
Richly flavored salmon can stand up to bold flavors, especially when it’s grilled. Here are seven sauces to try.
Pesto
Sure, a classic basil pesto is nice, but this pistachio-oregano version is spectacular with grilled salmon.
Honey Mustard
To create a glazed finish, brush salmon with honey mustard that’s been amped up with garlic and thyme.
Lemon Relish
Floral and lightly acidic Meyer lemon salsa brings out the buttery, rich flavors of grilled salmon.
Charmoula
Salmon is made extra flavorful when marinated in charmoula, a tangy cilantro-based Moroccan sauce.
Ketchup
Doctor ketchup with soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, and curry to brush on salmon after it grills.
Tandoori
Salmon works beautifully with an Indian-style yogurt marinade, which forms a fantastic crust on the fish.
Miso
Rub and briefly marinate the salmon with miso, lemon, and ginger before grilling.
