Easy Grilled Whole Salmon

There are no strong flavours in this recipe that will mask the subtle flavour of the salmon itself. It is the best recipe I have found (in years of searching and trying) for grilling or baking a whole salmon. It is so easy, any size fish works; just make sure you have enough mayo and lemon slices for the size of the fish. Read more The number of servings depends on the size of fish. One serving is usually about 6 ounces, so you can gauge what size fish you need for the number you are going to feed from that. See less
Ingredients
- Whole salmon, cleaned, head and tailed removed shopping list
- Fresh sliced lemons to cover length of fish shopping list
- Fresh lemon wedges for serving shopping list
- mayonnaise (not Miracle Whip -- too sweet) shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat grill to medium-high.
- Slather the inside of the fish with mayonnaise and stuff with lemon slices and wrap in two layers of heavy aluminum foil.
- Grill for 20 to 30 minutes, depending on size of fish. (Fish is done when no longer opaque.) Do not overcook (although mayo will keep the fish from drying out).
- To serve, remove from tinfoil, lay fish open on a large platter and remove lemon slices. Garnish the platter with fresh lemon slices and allow guests to serve themselves.
