These grilled salmon recipes are heart-healthy alternatives to one of my favorite foods ever: fried fish. We all know that fish is good for you. However, the "F" word (fried) basically means ruining much of the health benefits that come from eating fish.
That's why these recipes are so great. Now will they forever end your craving for fried catfish steaks or red snapper po' boys? Not even. However, salmon is a "meaty" fish with a texture that's perfect for grilling.
More importantly, though, these recipes taste really good and, as we know, taste is everything.
(On another note, salmon roll is my FAVORITE sushi. If I could just figure out how to make it without poisoning myself...).
