Amazing Salmon Marinade

Excellent recipe but it's a bit more like a wet rub than a marinade. I assume the fresh basil was to be chopped up pretty finely which I did but it soaked up too much liquid making it even less of a marinade and more like a wet rub. Next time I will get a little more liquid in there and delete the basil but, as mentioned, this is excellent stuff. It provides some great flavors made complex by the honey and ginger. I also added some course ground pepper. I marinade in a plastic bag with all the air removed so all the meat is in contact with the marinade. Then I flip it over once or more as it marinades. And I let it marinade for a couple hours or more. This recipes calls for cooking for 20 minutes but, I cut the salmon into individual portions before putting it on the grill (more surface for the marinade to penetrate the fish). In that case, depending on your heat source, less that 5 minutes on each side should do it.

Great mix of sweet and savory.
