Alaska Sockeye Salmon with Herbs and Garlic Prep time: 15 minutes Cook time: 13 minutes Servings: 4-6 1 1/2 pounds Alaska sockeye salmon, fresh or thawed Cooking spray 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1/2 cup white wine 2 tablespoons melted butter or extra-virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons finely minced fresh garlic 2 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs Remove salmon from refrigerator 15 minutes before cooking. Heat grill to 375 degrees. Cut two pieces of wide, heavy-duty aluminum foil about 6 inches longer than salmon side. Stack foil pieces (shiny side down) on baking sheet and spray generously with cooking spray. Place salmon, skin side down, in middle of foil. Fold foil sides and ends up (1-2 inches) to make shallow pan around salmon, leaving at least a 1-inch margin around fish. Season salmon with salt and pepper. In small bowl, mix together wine, butter, gar- lic and herbs. Spoon mix- ture over top of salmon, drizzling with any remaining liquid. Carefully transfer foil pan to center of preheated grill. Do not cover salmon with foil or close foil over salmon. Close grill cover and cook 10-13 minutes, cooking just until fish is lightly translucent in cen- ter — it will finish cook- ing from retained heat. Remove from grill and let rest a few minutes before serving. Cook's tip: Check salmon for doneness at 10 minutes. continued on Page 13 Alaska Sockeye Salmon with Herbs and Garlic FOOD •Full Service Grooming •Full Line of Supplies & Gifts •Vet Recommended •Evening & Sat.
