Ingredients

Marinade

  • ¼ cup soy sauce or gluten-free tamari
  • ¼ cup avocado oil
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Salmon

  • 16 ounces salmon filets
  • Oil for the griddle (such as avocado or vegetable oil)

For Serving

  • Freshly squeezed lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Prepare Marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, avocado oil, brown sugar, dried basil, dried thyme, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
  2. Marinate Salmon: Place the salmon filets in a zip-top bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Seal or cover and refrigerate for 1 hour to allow the flavors to penetrate the fish.
  3. Preheat Blackstone Griddle: Heat the Blackstone griddle to medium-low heat, approximately 350°F. Liberally oil the griddle surface to prevent sticking and promote even cooking.
  4. Cook Salmon on Griddle: Place the salmon filets skin-side down onto the hot, oiled griddle. Cook for about 2 minutes per side for medium-rare, adjusting time depending on salmon thickness and desired doneness.
  5. Serve: Remove the salmon from the griddle, drizzle with freshly squeezed lemon juice, and serve immediately for best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • Storage: Store leftover salmon in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days.
  • Reheating: Leftovers can be reheated gently in the microwave or enjoyed cold on a salad for a light meal.
  • Freezing: While cooked fish can be frozen, it is not recommended for this recipe as freezing can negatively affect the texture of the salmon.
