Our Best Gluten Free Recipes for Grilling Salmon

     Salmon is by far my favorite fish, and over the years I have learned some ways of cooking it that are so delicious.  Fish recipes for the most part are easy to adapt to a gluten free diet. Several years ago my sister-in-law Vicki gave me the best recipe for fish I've ever had.  She picked it up when she was a bookkeeper for a fishing company in Seattle. 


 When I was at my daughter's last weekend, we barbecued some salmon. This wasn't some ordinary store bought salmon. My son-in-law's boss had chartered plane with some others into a remote fishing spot in upper British Columbia.

 The fish his boss had given them was from an over 40 pound salmon that he had caught!  Here's a picture of my daughter holding up that chunk that shows you how big that salmon must have been.


 My daughter made a change to our family recipe.   First I'll give you the original recipe from my sister-in-law:
  • Sour Cream Salmon or Halibut Recipe
1.  Prepare fish:  Rinse off 1 pound salmon or halibut.  Put in 9 x 13 pan and mix together 1/4 c of rice mirin and 1 t salt and pour over the fish and let marinate for 1+ hours, then drain.  Put fish in large piece of foil.


2.  Prepare topping:  Mix together 1/8 cup of mayonnaise and 1/8 cup of sour cream and 1/4 cup of minced sweet onion.  Spoon over the fish and then sprinkle with paprika.  


3.  Grill the fish:  Put fish on your grill and cook at medium high heat for 20-25 minutes or until the fish flakes.  You can also bake this at 350 for 20-25 minutes.
  • Janah's Variation of Sour Cream Salmon

2.  Prepare topping:   
(1)  Spread  3- 4 T of  mayonnaise over the salmon.  
(2)  Mince 4-5 cloves of garlic, mince 1/4 of a diced sweet onion and scatter over the surface of the salmon.  
(3)  Sprinkle with salt and pepper.  

3.  Grill the fish
(1)   Put fish on your grill and cook at medium high heat for 20-25 minutes or until the fish flakes.

(3)  The vegetable kabobs are brushed with oil and spices if desired and added the last 5-6 minutes and turned after 2-3 minutes.

Here's a picture of our plates.   The salmon was served over rice. And yes it was delicious!
