A delightful salmon recipe with a tropical twist, perfect for a quick and flavorful meal.
Prepare the marinade by combining the soy sauce and ginger in a bowl.
Letting the marinade sit for a few minutes helps the flavors meld together.
Place the salmon fillets in the marinade and let them sit for 15 minutes.
Ensure the salmon is evenly coated for consistent flavor.
Mix the ketchup, pineapple juice, cayenne pepper, and brown sugar in another bowl to create the glaze.
Adjust the sweetness and spiciness of the glaze to your preference.
Preheat the grill or broiler to medium-high heat.
Ensure the grill is hot to prevent sticking.
Remove the salmon from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for 5 minutes on one side.
Avoid moving the salmon too much to achieve nice grill marks.
Flip the salmon and cook for another 5 minutes, basting with the glaze.
Basting frequently enhances the flavor and creates a caramelized surface.
Remove the salmon from the grill and drizzle with any remaining glaze before serving.
Serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
