Instructions

In a bowl, whisk together the lime juice, lager beer, soy sauce, grated ginger, minced garlic, sesame oil, honey, and lime zest. This creates your flavorful marinade.

💡

Tip:For an extra kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade.

Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the salmon, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover or seal and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours. Avoid marinating for too long, as the citrus can begin to 'cook' the fish.

💡

Tip:Thin-skinned fish like tilapia or cod can also benefit from this marinade, but reduce marinating time to 15-30 minutes.

Preheat your grill or oven broiler to medium-high heat.

💡

Tip:If grilling, lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.

Remove the salmon from the marinade, letting excess drip off. Discard the used marinade.

💡

Tip:Resist the urge to reuse the marinade, especially with raw fish.

Grill or broil the salmon for approximately 4-6 minutes per side, depending on thickness, until opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Aim for an internal temperature of 63 °C (63 °C).

💡

Tip:Thicker fillets might take slightly longer. Watch closely to avoid overcooking.

Transfer the cooked salmon to a serving platter. Garnish generously with freshly ground black pepper and chopped fresh cilantro.
