Ready in: < 30 minutes

***Salmon Rub***

  • 3 tablespoons kosher salt
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon light or dark brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons celery seed
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground fennel seed

***Salmon***

  • 2 1/2 pounds skin-on salmon fillets
  • mayonnaise
  • 1 lime

Combine all the rub ingredients until thoroughly mixed. You can store any leftover rub in an airtight container.

Meanwhile, heat the grill to medium heat.

Sprinkle several tablespoons of the rub evenly over the skinless side of the salmon fillets and gently rub it into the fish flesh.

Spread a very thin layer of mayonnaise over the rub on the salmon. Place the fish on an oiled grill rack, skin side down.

Close the grill cover and cook until the fish flakes easily. Cooking time will vary by the thickness of the fillets but expect them to take 15-20 minutes. Do not overcook the fish and do not turn it while cooking.

Before serving, squeeze fresh lime juice over the fillets.
