How Do You Cook Salmon Steaks On A Grill?
The easiest way to cook salmon on the grill is to leave the skin on and close the grill’s cover. The protective skin will become crisp as the dome reflects heat, cooking the salmon from above and beneath. Here are a few steps to help you cook the perfect salmon. Preheat your gas or charcoal grill to medium heat. Brush the skin-sides of the salmon pieces with olive oil, then place them skin-side-down on a well-oiled grill grate. Cover the grill and cook for 5 to 7 minutes. If any of the salmon pieces are cooking too quickly, move them to a cooler part of the grill. Continue cooking 5 to 7 minutes longer. Top the grilled salmon with butter and lemon juice or your favorite sauce.
