Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

- #25553
The soy and honey marinade add a lot of flavor to this simple salmon recipe. Don't have time to marinate? Use the marinade as a glaze instead while grilling and sprinkle with the sesame seeds before serving.
serves/makes:
ready in:
1-2 hrs
1-2 hrs
ingredients
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup honey
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
4 salmon fillets (6 ounce size)
kosher salt and black pepper, as desired
1/2 cup sesame seeds
directions
In a zip-top plastic bag or other non-reactive container, combine the soy sauce, honey, and lemon juice. Mix well. Add the salmon to the marinade and turn to coat it completely. Seal the bag and place in the refrigerator for 1 hour (can marinate for up to 4-6 hours if desired).
Preheat a grill to medium-high heat. Grease the grates well.
Remove the salmon from the bag and discard the marinade. Place the salmon on a plate or other work surface.
Sprinkle both sides of the salmon with the salt and pepper. Coat both sides evenly with the sesame seeds, pressing them so they adhere.
Place the salmon on the grill and cook for 4 minutes. Gently turn the salmon over and cook for 4 more minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Serve hot.
If you don't have time to marinate the salmon, combine the soy sauce, honey, and lemon juice and use it as a glaze while grilling instead. Sprinkle the salmon with the sesame seeds before serving.
