Heather's Grilled Salmon - Another Nice & Easy Salmon Recipe

This another fast and easy salmon recipe. The preparation and cooking are fast, but at least an hour is required for marinating the salmon. I found this recipe at allrecipes.com (http://allrecipes.com/recipe/heathers-grilled-salmon/detail.aspx). It is similar to an earlier salmon recipe I posted (http://viaggiviniecucine.blogspot.com/2013/02/delicious-easy-grilled-salmon.html), but I like this one better because of the spices.

This recipe serves four, but I adjusted the amount of salmon to serve two. I did not change the other ingredients. I did cook it on a grill pan on our gas stove, rather than on the grill.

Ingredients

1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 teaspoons lemon pepper
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
4 (6 ounce) salmon fillets

Directions

Whisk together the brown sugar, olive oil, soy sauce, lemon pepper, thyme, basil, parsley, and garlic powder in a bowl, and pour into a resealable plastic bag.  Add the salmon fillets, coat with marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least an hour, turning occasionally.

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil the grate. Remove the salmon from the marinade, and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade. (Actually, I poured some of the leftover marinade on the salmon when I put it onto the grill pan.)

3. Grill the salmon on the preheated grill until browned and the fish flakes easily with a fork - about 5 minutes on each side.
