 The Secret to Perfect Flavor: How to Prepare Grilled Salmon Like a Pro!

Salmon is one of the most delicious foods loved by everyone, and it can be prepared in many ways. However, the secret to perfect flavor lies in the proper preparation and unique seasonings. Here's how to prepare grilled salmon like a pro:

Ingredients:

• 4 pieces of salmon (200 grams each)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest (optional)
• 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce (optional)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, mix the olive oil with the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, lemon juice, and lemon zest (if using). Add the dried thyme and soy sauce, and mix well.

2. Marinate the Salmon: Place the salmon pieces in a deep dish or bowl. Pour the marinade over the fish and spread it evenly using your hands or a spoon. It’s best to let the salmon marinate for 15-30 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.

3. Preheat the Grill: Heat the grill (or skillet) to medium-high heat. If you're using an outdoor grill, make sure it's cleaned properly and lightly brush it with olive oil to prevent the salmon from sticking.

4. Grill the Salmon: Place the salmon pieces on the grill or in the skillet, skin-side down. Grill for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the surface is golden and the fish is cooked through (the salmon should remain pink in the center).

5. Serving: Once the salmon is ready, serve it with lemon slices and fresh thyme leaves. You can pair it with a side of grilled vegetables or white rice.

Additional Tips:

• Fresh Fish: For the best flavor, it's recommended to use fresh salmon.
• Deep Marination: If you have the time, marinate the salmon overnight to enhance the flavor even more.
• Ideal Temperature: Be sure not to overcook the salmon, as it can become dry.

By following this method, you'll achieve perfectly grilled salmon that's rich in flavor and carefully cooked like a pro!
