Asian Grilled Salmon

I like this recipe because it only has two ingredients. It's great for a busy weeknight. Add a baked potato or sweet potato and tossed salad and the meal is complete.

Ingredients:

1 lb. salmon filets
3/4 cup Kraft Light Asian Sesame Dressing, divided into 1/2 cup and 1/4 cup

Directions:

Place salmon filets in a gallon size zipper seal bag. Pour 1/2 cup dressing over filets and turn the bag to coat the pieces well. Set aside 1/4 cup dressing for basting. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes or longer. Drain, discarding marinade. Grill salmon over medium coals, skin side down, for 15-20 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Baste occasionally with reserved dressing.

Servings: 4

Prep Time: 10 Minutes

Cooking Time: 15-20 Minutes

Source: I like to try different salad dressings as marinades, and this is one of my favorites.

Foreman Grill For Cooking Salmon

Use your George Foreman grill, and it only takes 5 minutes (or less if the salmon is thinner). I season with a little garlic, onion powder, and some lemon pepper - delicious!
