Ingredients
 

Grilled Salmon

  • 4 6 oz salmon fillets, about 1 inch thick
  • 2 Tbsp canola oil
  • 2 Tbsp tamari or low sodium soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup orange juice or juice of 1 orange
  • 6 to 8 basil leaves cut into thin strips
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Directions

  • Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish. Rub the fillets with the canola oil, soy sauce, and orange juice. Turn the fillets to coat and press the basil onto fleshy side of the salmon.
  • Heat a grill pan over medium to high heat. Remove the salmon fillets from the marinade, season with salt and pepper, and lay the fillets skin side down on the grill pan for 4 minutes, brushing the flesh side side with the reserved marinade.
  • Turn the fillets and grill for an additional 4 minutes, spooning the marinade over them as they cook, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily. Serve immediately, topped with Roasted Sweet Potato Salsa.
