Add oil, lime juice, salt and pepper. Toss to coat and refrigerate until ready to serve.I used a (water soaked) hickory board to grill my salmon fillet. If you are putting the salmon directly on the grill, oil the skin and cook skin side down with lid closed. You don't have to worry about the added oil since you are not eating the skin anyway. As for cooking times, it depends on how thick your fish is. A general rule is 10 minutes per 1" of thickness. See Notes section for a great grilling chart guide and link!

Equipment

Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc

Salmon works really well with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Sauvignon Blanc. To decide on white or red, you should consider your seasoning and sauces. Chardonnay is a great friend to buttery, creamy dishes, while sauvignon blanc can complement herb or citrus-centric dishes. A light-bodied, low-tannin red such as the pinot noir goes great with broiled or grilled salmon. The Tyler Winery Santa Barbara County Chardonnay with a 4.1 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 30 dollars per bottle.

2015 brought the earliest vintage of the decade so far. After the large 2013 and 2014 vintages and the continued drought, the vines put forth a fraction of the fruit than the previous two years. They were down approximately 30% overall but the result was exceptional quality and deep, powerful wines with great acidity. Citrus, anise, saline, and energetic.
