Grilled Salmon is a great way to get some healthy protein, while still keeping to a LoSo diet. And to top it off, it is very easy and quick to make. To make it even more appealing, you can use leftovers in a salad. Mix it with some other veggies and a dressing, and you have a healthy lunch for the next day!
I would definitely recommend investing in a good grill pan. It really helps for the months when it's too cold to grill outside. Or for a day when you just don't feel like opening the grill for a single piece of salmon. In fact, a grill pan is so easy, my 14 year old son has gotten used to coming downstairs at 11 PM at night for his barbecue fix. (I have a grill pan for meat, and a separate one for fish.)
Below is my basic grilled salmon recipe. If you want to lower the sodium even more, skip the Coconut Aminos. Add orange juice instead for a sweeter taste.
You can also just marinate your salmon with some olive oil and spices like a Salmon Rub to keep it really simple. Kol Save, a local kosher supermarket near my house has a Sweet and Sour Salmon Rub. The catch is that it is 95 mg per 1/4 Tsp. Flavor God has a great Lemon and Garlic Seasoning which you can use with only 35 mg of sodium for a serving size of 1/4 Tsp. Mrs. Dash goes even lower than that with their sodium free Lemon Pepper Seasoning Blend.
Magic Seasonings also has a salt-free collection, and has some nice blends to put on salmon, including Lemon and Black Pepper, Magic Creole, and Sweet Basil & Tarragon. Even better, they sell their spices in packets so if you are travelling somewhere and taking a disposable grill, you can bring these along. Or take them to a restaurant to add some flavor (assuming they have left the food unsalted - unlikely, I know!) These mini packs are absolute genius!
