Ingredients
- 1 1/2 to 2 pounds salmon filet 1/3 cup mayonnaise (light or non-fat) 2 tablespoons fresh-squeezed lime juice 1/4 teaspoon chopped fresh herbs of your choice Coarse salt and coarsely-ground black pepper to taste
Recipe Steps:
- Preheat barbecue grill. Wash salmon filet and pat dry. Place salmon (skin side down) onto a large piece of aluminum foil
- In a small bowl, with a wire whisk, combine mayonnaise, lime juice, and herbs until smooth; spread over top of salmon. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper.
- Place salmon (with aluminum foil) onto hot grill. Cover barbecue with lid, open any vents, and cook 8 to 12 minutes or until a meat thermometer registers an internal temperature of 145 degrees F. (salmon will be slightly opaque in thickest part).
- During this time the salmon continues to cook (meat temperature will rise 5 to 10 degrees after it is removed from the grill) and the juices redistribute.
