Ingredients for Alaskan Amber Salmon Marinade

  • Salmon Fillets
  • Amber Beer
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • Garlic Cloves
  • Gingerroot
  • Cilantro

How to Make Alaskan Amber Salmon Marinade

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup Alaskan Amber beer, 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  2. Place 1.5 lbs (approximately 2-3) Alaskan King Salmon fillets in a resealable freezer bag.
  3. Pour the marinade over the salmon fillets, ensuring they are fully coated.
  4. Squeeze out excess air from the bag and seal tightly. Marinate in the refrigerator for 12-24 hours.
  5. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Prepare a grilling area with indirect heat (one side hotter than the other).
  6. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the cooler side of the grill.
  7. Grill for approximately 4-6 minutes per side, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
  8. Serve immediately with roasted red bell peppers and a cold Alaskan Amber beer.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
