SALMON TERIYAKI

Category: Seafood and Fish - Grilled

1 1/2 lb salmon fillets
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 tbsp. sugar
2 tbsp. sherry
1 tbsp. brown sugar
2 tsp ginger, minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 tsp lemon juice
Oil, for grill

About an hour before serving, make marinade by combining soy sauce and sugar in a bowl and microwave 30 seconds, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar. Add the sherry, brown sugar, garlic and ginger, refrigerate for 15 minutes. When the marinade is cool, add the lemon juice.

Rinse the salmon fillets and cut into 4 portions. Place in a resealable bag and pour on the marinade. Seal the bag and refrigerate on a plate for about 30 minutes. Heat oiled grill. Remove salmon from the bag and pat dry with a paper towel. Grill skin-side down and cool about 4 minutes. Flip over with tongs and cook another 3-4 minutes.

Meanwhile, pour the marinade in a saucepan and boil for a few minutes to serve on top of the salmon.
