Questions

I was looking around on that site I just posted and found a recipe for grilled salmon that sounds really good to me. The recipe for it is simple. Buy lemon extract virgin olive oil, sea salt & garlic pepper or cracked pepper. Mix all of these ingredients in a bowl. Brush on salmon & grill. They didn't give measurements...eyeball it I guess.. Anyway..my questions are these:

I have never bought lemon extract virgin olive oil in a grocery store..do most grocery stores sell it?

Sea salt??? Has anyone ever used it and what do you think of it? I am thinking I would sprinkle some Paula Deen's House Seasoning instead of sea salt..would that work instead?

Question: Does this recipe sound good to anyone besides me? I love grilled salmon at a restaurant and thought I would get brave and make it at home.

Last Question: How long on each side should you grill salmon?

Re: Questions

The recipe does sound good. I have never heard of lemon extract olive oil, I'll have to look next time I go to the store but I bet you could use lemon juice or zest with regular olive oil. I use sea salt all the time it is a coarser salt. I'd say cook the salmon 2-4 minutes per side. If it doesn't flake when you try with a fork it needs more time.

I'm going to try this with Halibut.
