Ingredients
- 1 12-2 lbs fresh salmon
- 4 -6 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 2 lemons
- 1 garlic clove (optional)
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- salt
- pepper
- 2 cups soaked alder wood chips
Method
- Prepare the outdoor grill.
- Cut the garlic clove in half, lengthwise, and rub the fleshy side of the salmon with it.
- Brush the fish with a little olive oil so that it won't stick to the grill, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Place the soaked alder chips directly on top of hot coals.
- Oil the grill, and then spread the rosemary sprigs on top of the grill.
- Place the salmon, fleshy side down, directly on top of the rosemary.
- Cover the grill, and cook fish for about 5 minutes.
- Flip it after about 5 minutes and cook the skin side for 3-4 minutes, checking with a knife for completion.
- It needs to reach a just barely opaque pink color throughout.
- Overcooking this will cause it to become dry.
- Serve with quartered lemons and a green vegetable, or salad.
