We prefer wild salmon for this recipe because it has a milder flavor and is more environmentally friendly than farmed varieties.

Active time: 20 min Start to finish: 30 min

Cooks' note:

If you aren't able to grill outdoors, fish and citrus can be cooked in a ridged grill pan. Cook citrus over high heat, then reduce heat to moderately high and cook fish, skin sides down first, turning once, 7 to 8 minutes total.
