Grilled Ginger Salmon

Ingredients:
  • 1/3 cup canola oil
  • 3 tbsp minced fresh ginger
  • 1 tbsp reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 10 (6-ounce) salmon fillets, about 1-inch thick
Makes 10 (6-ounce) Servings
  1. Whisk together oil, ginger, soy sauce and garlic in a small bowl; divide marinade between 2 large resealable plastic bags. Place 5 fillets in each bag, seal bags and turn to coat salmon with marinade. Lay bags flat in the refrigerator. Refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight, turning once.
  2. Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high. Remove salmon from bags and grill until medium-rare, about 5 minutes per side. Serve warm.

Note: This recipe appears in the South Beach Diet Parties & Holidays Cookbook. I have now come to really enjoy fish no matter what kind it is. Grilled salmon or Arctic char is really delicious because it's flaky and moist.  Salmon is high in point and calorie value but it's also high in omega-3 and protein and will fill you up. If you don't want to use salmon, I highly recommend Arctic Char because it's just like salmon but has fewer calories. This is a great main dish if you want a simple dinner but I do recommend marinating the fish for more than an hour if you want more flavor. 5-ingredient fox queen Claire Robinsoon will be impressed with this meal as well.
