Grilled Salmon with Muirhead  Apricot Jalapeno Jelly


Salmon fillets, deboned with skin
Olive oil or butter
Muirhead  Apricot Jalapeno Jelly

Coat salmon fillets with light butter or oil (may leave the skin on one side of the salmon to help it hold together – it's easier to remove the skin once it is heated. Ensuring that the grill grate is well-oiled and hot enough will keep the fish from sticking). Place fillet skin side down on a medium hot grill that is well oiled. Spread a generous amount of Muirhead  Apricot Jalapeno Jelly over the salmon. Keep a small ramekin of Apricot Jalapeno Jelly next to grill – brushing jelly over fish as it cooks. Grill for approx. 7 minutes for a ¾ inch thick salmon and then turn over. (Amount of time will depend upon the thickness and size of fish.) Flip the fish and remove the skin with a sharp spatula and repeat the process of brushing the jelly over the fish. Salmon will lose its opaque quality when done. Try to avoid overcooking as this dries the fish. A small amount of the jelly lightly heated with a bit of butter in the microwave can be poured over the salmon and served with the fish. Serving size will depend on the size of the fish.
