Sweet and Spicy Grilled Salmon
Prep: 15 minsCook: 12 minsTotal: 27 mins
Servings: 4 1x
Ingredients
- 4 4-6 oz salmon fillets
- 3–4 tbsp oil
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/8 tsp cinnamon
- 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1/4 tsp unprocessed sea salt and pepper, each
- 1 tsp raw honey
Instructions
- Fire up your grill and set to medium-high heat.
- Tear out 4 pieces of heavy duty foil large enough to completely encapsulate each salmon fillet.
- Lay each salmon fillet skin down on a piece of tin foil. You can also add fresh vegetables to cook along with the fillet, including sliced pepper, onions, or finely diced carrots.
- Melt coconut oil and pour it over each salmon fillet (about 1 tbsp per piece.) Drizzle raw honey over each salmon fillet, and evenly coat salmon with cumin, paprika, cinnamon, cayenne, salt and pepper.
- Seal each piece of salmon in the foil by folding up the two opposite “long” sides first and rolling together at the edges. Then, roll the two “short” sides into the existing seal, making sure to keep any steam from seeping out.
- Cook on grill for 10-12 minutes. Check for doneness by flaking with a fork.
