Ingredients

  • 3/4 pound salmon fillet
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup dry white wine
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • - parsley, minced
  • - lemon wedges

How To Make barbecued salmon fillet

  • Step 1
    Ignite coals about 35 minutes before you intend to begin cooking (you will need about 20 to 30 long burning briquets). When coals are covered with gray ash, arrange in a single layer to underlie area being used on grill. Knock ash off coals. Adjust grill to 4 to 6 inches above low-glowing coals.
  • Step 2
    Cut heavy-duty foil the same size as fish fillet. Place fillet, skin side down, on foil.
  • Step 3
    Combine butter, wine, lemon juice, and soy sauce.
  • Step 4
    Place fish on grill, foil side down, and brush generously with butter sauce.
  • Step 5
    Cover barbecue with its hood (or fashion a hood out of heavy-duty foil and place on grill to enclose fish).
  • Step 6
    Cook, basting with butter sauce about every 5 minutes, until fish flakes readily when prodded in thickest portion with a fork (allow about 10 minutes cooking time for each inch of thickness).
  • Step 7
    To serve, slide fish, still on foil, onto a serving plate or board.
  • Step 8
    Garnish with parsley and lemon.
  • Step 9
    Slice fish to the skin and lift each serving away from skin.
  • Step 10
    Reheat any remaining butter sauce and pass at table to serve over fish.
