Ingredients
Scale
Salmon Collars
- 4 salmon collars
Marinade
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
Garnish & Seasoning
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Marinade: In a mixing bowl, blend the soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil until well combined to create the flavorful marinade.
- Marinate the Salmon: Add the salmon collars to the marinade, making sure each piece is fully coated. Cover and allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes to absorb all the flavors.
- Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat to ensure even cooking and a nice sear on the salmon collars.
- Season the Salmon: Remove the salmon collars from the marinade and season them with salt and pepper according to your taste.
- Grill the Salmon: Place the salmon collars on the grill. Cook each side for about 4-5 minutes until the salmon is cooked through and has a beautiful charred finish.
- Garnish and Serve: Once grilled, sprinkle the salmon collars with chopped green onions and sesame seeds. Serve hot for a delightful and savory meal.
Notes
- Marinating for longer than 30 minutes, up to 2 hours, will enhance the flavor even more.
- Use a fish basket on the grill to prevent sticking and make flipping easier.
- Adjust honey quantity if you prefer a sweeter or less sweet marinade.
- Ensure grill is properly preheated to avoid overcooking the fish.
- Salmon collars contain higher fat content making them especially flavorful compared to other salmon cuts.
