Summer is that time of year when nobody wants to toil for hours in the kitchen. We want to spend time outdoors, enjoying the fresh air (and a glass of wine) while eating dinner in the backyard. So how do we make that happen? With a quick dinner recipe, of course! One of the best ways to implement this genius plan is to enlist the grill (whether it’s an indoor or outdoor grill) and salmon.
This grilled teriyaki salmon recipe is mouthwatering and flavorful, all thanks to a combination of teriyaki sauce and Harry & David Bacon Chipotle BBQ Sauce. The salmon is seasoned simply before its brushed with this fantastic sauce combo. Serve it with a seasonal salad, rice, or your favorite side dish.
With just a handful of ingredients and steps to make it, this grilled teriyaki salmon dish may become your go-to dinner throughout the season.
