How to Make Citrus Teriyaki Salmon

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2/3 cup orange juice, 1/3 cup pink grapefruit juice, 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger, 1/4 cup finely chopped onion, 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce, 2 tablespoons lime juice, and 2 cloves minced garlic.
  2. Place salmon fillets in a resealable bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the salmon, ensuring they are fully coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight for maximum flavor.
  3. Preheat grill or broiler to medium-high heat. Remove salmon from marinade and discard marinade solids.
  4. Grill or broil salmon for 4-6 minutes per side, or until cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Baste with reserved marinade during the last 2 minutes of cooking.
  5. While the salmon cooks, strain the remaining marinade through a fine-mesh sieve into a small saucepan.
  6. Bring the strained marinade to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5-10 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
  7. Spoon the reduced teriyaki sauce generously over the cooked salmon and serve immediately with Julesong's Brown Rice with Onions and Pecans and Edamame.
