Grilled Salmon Recipes You Should Definitely Try

Fish is just as satisfying as meat, but with fewer calories. Their meat is also extremely versatile: they’ll taste great whether you simply season them with salt and pepper or toss them with a flavorful marinade. One of the most popular fish for grilling is salmon, mainly because its meat is firm and abundant. It also has a strong, distinctive flavor that is made even better by smokiness from the grill.
