Marsha'S Grilled Salmon W/ Honey-Mustard & Peaches
- Five lbs North-Atlantic Salmon Fillet.
- 1/2 fresh lemon.
- Two tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil.
- Five crushed cloves of garlic.
- Two teaspoons fresh cracked black pepper.
- One teaspoon seasoned salt.
- One teaspoon cayenne pepper.
- 1/2 teaspoon ground thyme.
- Sauce
- 10 oz. organic honey.
- 10 oz. dijon mustard.
- One can (12 oz.) peach halves in light syrup.
- My favorite way to eat this is as a warm salad over a bed of fresh spinach leaves.
- My sister likes it when I serve the salmon over a bed of cous cous. (I like to use the Near East garlic and olive oil variety that cooks in the microwave in 5 minutes.) I also like to serve the dish with bunches of asparagus spears wrapped in strips of turkey bacon, and cooked on the electric grill for about 3 minutes.
- If you are feeling adventurous, you can substitute fresh mango slices for the peach halves.
- Rub salmon with slightly squeezed lemon half (to remove fishy taste). Rinse salmon with tepid water. Pat dry with paper towels. Set aside.
- Cut Salmon into 4 inch wide strips. (this makes it easier to get the salmon on the grill.)
- Place salmon pieces in large plastic bowl.
- Brush salmon with olive oil. Season with crushed garlic, cracked black pepper, seasoned salt, cayenne pepper, and ground thyme. Rub seasonings into salmon. Set aside for 5 minutes.
- Turn on tabletop electric grill to high setting. When grill is hot place two salmon pieces on grill surface. close grill. allow salmon to cook for aproximately 4 minutes, or until salmon gets to desired level of preparedness. I prefer to eat this dish medium rare. (Cooking time also depends on the thickness of the salmon, so the thicker the fish, the greater amount of grill time.
- Open can of peaches. Set aside 2 tablespoons of the peach syrup. Place peach halves on grill and close. Peaches only need about 1 minute on grill. (I like to keep them on until the grill marks appear.)
- Place salmon pieces in semi circle on large serving platter. Place one grilled peach half on top of each piece of salmon. Garnish with parsley. Set aside.
- Wisk the organic honey, dijon mustard, and reserved peach syrup together in medium-sized bowl for about 2 minutes (or until the sauce gets a creamy consistency). Pour warm sauce over salmon fillet pieces. Serve.
- I like to serve this with grilled asparagus spears, wrapped in turkey bacon and grilled for 3 minutes on the electric grill.
- The honey mustard peach salmon also goes well over a bed of fresh spinach leaves.
