Cooking Tips

• Make sure to preheat the grill properly to ensure even cooking and prevent sticking.
• If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the salmon in a grill pan or bake it in the oven.
• To check if the salmon is cooked through, insert a fork into the thickest part of the fillet. If it flakes easily and is opaque, it is done.

Storage and Serving

• Leftover grilled salmon can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• To reheat the salmon, gently warm it in a skillet over low heat or in the microwave.
• Serve the grilled salmon as a main dish with a side of vegetables or on top of a salad for a light and refreshing meal.
