This marinade is great for grilled salmon. It works well with any cut of salmon. However, I typically use salmon fillets. I like king salmon best, but it works well on any type of fresh salmon. This marinade is enough for 3 pounds of salmon.

👨‍🍳 Instructions

Make a shallow pan from a double layer of aluminum foil.

Place foil pan in a large baking sheet.

Arrange salmon fillets in the prepared foil pan, skin-side down.

Stir basil, honey, lemon, oil, soy sauce, shallot, Worcestershire sauce, and ginger together in a bowl; pour over salmon.

Let salmon marinate for 30 minutes to 2 hours.

Preheat grill for medium-low heat.

Slide salmon in the foil pan off the baking sheet onto the preheated grill.
