Ingredients
  

  • 2 (6 ounce) skinless salmon filets 1/2–3/4 inch thick
  • cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • cup brown sugar
  • cup vegetable oil
  • cup water
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • lemon pepper to taste
  • salt to taste

Instructions
 

  • Place all ingredients, except salmon filets in a bowl and mix well until sugar is dissolved.
  • Pour mixture into a ziplock bag and add salmon filets. Make sure filets are well coated, squeeze out any air, and refrigerate for at least an hour – a couple of hours or even overnight for more flavor.
  • Preheat your George Foreman Grill with the lid closed for at least 5 minutes. Use the high setting for the first batch. If your grill is a particularly hot one you may need to adjust the temp down, but this is rarely an issue.
  • Brush a little vegetable on the grill to help prevent sticking. Add salmon filets to the grill and close the lid.
  • Grill for about 2-3 minutes. Flip the filets and give them a 1/4 turn. This helps assure even grilling and gives nice grill marks. Continue grilling for approximately 2-3 more minutes. Salmon will flake easily with a fork when done.
  • Enjoy this recipe!

Notes

  • Use low-sodium soy sauce to keep the sodium content down, and it won't really matter if you use light or dark brown sugar.
  • You can adjust the amount of lemon pepper and garlic powder to suit your taste. You’re gonna love this one, it truly is unbelievable!
