How to Make Asian Grilled Salmon Low Carb Fabulous

  1. Place salmon fillets (about 1.5 lbs) in a large zip-loc style plastic bag.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the marinade ingredients (see below) and pour over the salmon.
  3. Seal the bag, pressing out excess air, and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight, for maximum flavor.
  4. Preheat grill to medium-high heat (approximately 375-400°F).
  5. Remove salmon fillets from the marinade and discard the marinade. Place salmon on a well-oiled grill grate, about 5 inches from the heat source.
  6. Grill for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Adjust grilling time based on the thickness of your fillets.
  7. Remove from grill and serve immediately. Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions (optional).
