Christian love salmon! While pizza or burgers are usually an 8 year old's favorite meal, Christian always chooses seafood, especially salmon. So last week I decided to try a new salmon recipe on the grill. Normally we smoke a whole salmon with a brown sugar rub. It's always delicious, but it was time for a change along with smaller portions. I found this "Chili-Lime Grilled Salmon" recipe in an old cooking magazine of mine that sounded good.
I served the salmon with Mediterranean Barley Salad and Sauteed Red Swiss Chard with pine nuts, mushrooms, and a tiny bit of Mrs. Dash Southwest Chipotle. The salmon was very tasty and everyone enjoyed it, except for Alexander who was too busy eating the barley. It was a great summery dish that I will try again.
Chili-Lime Grilled Salmon
Ingredients
1/2 tsp sugar
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp chili powder
2 tsp lime juice
4 salmon filets
4 lime or lemon wedges
Directions
1) Mix all ingredients except salmon & wedges. Spread mixture over flesh-side of salmon
2) Grill salmon, skin side down over medium heat. Cook for 15 - 18 minutes or until flesh flakes easy with a fork.
Do not turn salmon
