As a busy mom, I'm always looking for quick and easy recipes that my family will love. This grilled salmon is one of my go-tos because it's flavorful and healthy, but also simple enough to make on a weeknight.
The marinade is the star of this dish. The soy sauce and brown sugar give the salmon a salty-sweet flavor, while the lemon and garlic add a touch of brightness and depth. I like to marinate the salmon for at least two hours, but you can also marinate it overnight for even more flavor. Once the salmon is marinated, it's simply grilled until cooked through. The salmon is moist and flaky, with a crispy skin that's perfect for dipping in the leftover marinade. I like to serve this salmon with roasted vegetables or a simple salad. It's also delicious with a dollop of tartar sauce or lemon wedges. No matter how you serve it, this grilled salmon is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
