Grilling Salmon:

A great way to cook the fish and bring out its flavorful oils. Here is a simple method to grill salmon:

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Pat the salmon dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and pepper.
  3. Brush the salmon with a little bit of oil to prevent sticking and to add flavor.
  4. Place the salmon on the grill, skin-side down. Grill for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the fish is cooked to your desired level of doneness.
  5. Remove the salmon from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.

You can also marinate the salmon for additional flavor before grilling. Some popular marinade options include a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, and herbs, or a soy sauce and brown sugar marinade.

Grilling Shrimp:

The best way to grill shrimp is to first marinate them in a mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs such as parsley, thyme, and basil. Skewer the shrimp and season with salt and pepper. Grill for 2-3 minutes on each side or until shrimp are pink and cooked through. Be careful not to overcook the shrimp as they can become tough.

Grilling Tuna:

Grilling tuna is a quick and easy way to cook the fish and bring out its natural flavors. Here is a simple method to grill tuna:

  1. Preheat your grill to high heat.
  2. Pat the tuna dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and pepper.
  3. Brush the tuna with a little bit of oil to prevent sticking and to add flavor.
  4. Place the tuna on the grill and cook for 2-3 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until the fish is cooked to your desired level of doneness. Tuna is a pretty dense fish, so it’s important not to overcook it as it can become dry.
