Description

This white wine, rosemary, and garlic marinade is given a kick with crushed red pepper and hot sauce. Feel free to increase the spiciness by adding more hot sauce.

Ingredients

1 (1 1/2-pound) skin-on center-cut salmon fillet
6 fluid ounces dry white wine
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon hot sauce
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions

1 Cut fish into 4 portions.
2 Whisk together wine, olive oil, garlic, pepper flakes, and hot sauce in a small bowl. Pour over salmon and seal bag closed, letting out excess air. Place in refrigerator for 1 hour, turning after 30 minutes. Remove salmon from the marinade, letting excess drip off, and place on a plate to stand at room temperature for 15 minutes. Discard any remaining marinade.
3 Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
4 Place salmon flesh-side down on the hot grill. Close the lid and grill for 3 minutes. Flip and grill an additional 3 to 4 more minutes. Sprinkle with salt before serving, if desired.
