Since going Paleo my family has fallen even more in love with our grill. Paleo and grilling just work well together. The past couple of years I've even been stepping outside my grilling comfort zone more and more. Grilling things I'd never thought to have grilled before and trying new flavor combinations. I have to say I'm pretty thrilled with the results of most of my flavor experiments. In the past I'd never have thought to grill fruit, but it's amazing. Grilling fruit and adding it to traditionally savory dishes? Brilliant. Oh yes, and? New rule: every burger recipe for the rest of forever must contain grilled pineapple. OK, maybe more of a guideline. It's a seriously delicious combination though. This Smoky Grilled Pineapple Burger is always a crowd-pleaser at my house. It's not only Paleo, but Whole30, glutenfree, lower carb, and clean eating friendly. I promise you won't miss the bun! paleo, grilled pineapple burger, smoky
I've been trying to expand my protein horizons a little and so I picked up some salmon last time I went grocery shopping. Omega 3's and all that.
Last night I grilled it, yum, yum, yum. My husband who isn't a big fish person said it was sooo good. I'm not good with measuring, recipes, etc. But here's what I did.
Grilled Chili/Lime Salmon
Spray one side of salmon with I Can't Believe It's Not Butter Spray, place that side down on the grill. (key limes were on sale I'm sure regular lime would work) Squeeze key limes over tops of salmon. Spray top side with I Can't Believe It's Not Butter Spray then sprinkle with garlic salt and chili powder. Cook a few minutes, then flip and squeeze key lime on other side as well, sprinkle with garlic salt and chili powder. Cook until done.
I paired it with some sweet potato fries and my kids even loved it!
How do you cook salmon?
Sounds yummy! Usually I'm pretty lazy with my salmon cooking. My favorite is to just use some lemon pepper or seasoning salt and throw it on the grill.
