FISH: Salmon cooked on a BBQ makes for a delicious summer meal.

BBQ SALMON STEAKS:



2 lbs. salmon steaks, or five 6-oz fillets

marinade:

¼ cup salad oil
3 tbsp. lemon juice
2 tbsp. vinegar
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1 tsp. salt
½ tsp. rated onion
½ tsp. dry mustard
¼ tsp. paprika
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
3 drops Tabasco sauce
½ cup tomato ketchup



Place fish in a single layer in a shallow pan. Combine marinade ingredients and pour mixture over fish. Marinate for 1 hour, turning over once.

Remove fish and reserve marinade for basting. Preheat barbeque to medium-high direct heat and oil grill. Place fish on grill, about 4-inches from the source of heat. Cook salmon steaks 5-6 minutes on each side, and fillets about 3-4 minutes per side, or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Take care not to overcook fish. Baste frequently with sauce during cooking.



****Alternately, marinade salmon with a "creamy mustard sauce" made with 1 cup mayonnaise (home-made if possible), ½ cup Dijon mustard and 2 tbsp. lemon juice + 2 tbsp water. Marinade in fridge for 1 hour, turning over once or twice.

Grill steaks for 5 minutes first side. Brush with melted butter and season with salt and pepper. Turn over and grill 5 minutes more or until fish flakes easily. Serve with sauce.
