Chef's Tips
- Skin Crispiness: Ensure the grill is hot before placing the salmon to get crispy skin.
- Don’t Overcook: Salmon is best when slightly pink in the center for a tender texture.
- Marination: For deeper flavor, marinate the salmon for 30 minutes before grilling.
- Alternative Cooking: If you don’t have a grill, use a cast-iron skillet on the stovetop.
- Serving Suggestion: Pair with a fresh salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
