Lindsey’s Grilled Salmon With Avocado Salsa

Submitted by marisk

"This salmon is to die for! It is written for the grill but it can also be done on stove top ... it turns out fine. And it can also be made with or without the salsa. There is a lot of seasoning listed; if you are not preparing the full two pounds of salmon, I would cut how much you use or it will be overpowering. The number of servings will depend on serving size. This was enough for our office potluck of 35 along side other dishes....made minus the salsa and on stovetop : ) I plan on making the full amount of seasoning and storing the extra in a small jar for my next salmon."
