4 6-oz. salmon fillets
1 Cup Far East Marinade (below), divided
Place the fillets in the Quick Marinating Canister with ½-cup marinade, vacuum seal and marinate for at
least 20 minutes. Prepare a gas or charcoal grill for medium heat. Remove the salmon and discard the
marinade. Place the salmon fillets on the grill with a piece of lemongrass on each fillet. Place an onion
quarter beside each fillet. Cover the grill and cook for 6 minutes. Turn the fillets over and brush with the
remaining ½-cup marinade. Turn the onion quarters and place the lemongrass on top of each fillet. Cover
and cook another 4 to 6 minutes, until the fish flakes easily. To serve, plate each fillet with a piece of
lemongrass on top and the grilled quartered onion beside the fillet.
