Introduction
This 5-star recipe comes from the Food Network website; I halved it to make the portion sizes more reasonable, and used a salmon fillet rather than a salmon steak. Use low-sodium soy sauce if watching your sodium intake. Grilling the fish on a sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil sprayed with cooking spray will help to prevent the fillet from falling apart.

Ingredients
-
.5 tablespoon canola oil
.5 tablespoon minced garlic
.5 tablespoon minced ginger
.5 tablespoon minced green onion
.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
1/3 cup soy sauce
1.5 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon sesame oil
16-oz. salmon fillet, 1-inch thick
* Salt and freshly ground black pepper
* Vegetable oil, for brushing
* 3 cups baby spinach
Directions
Heat a medium size saucepan, over medium heat.
Add canola oil and saute garlic, ginger, and green onion until fragrant and tender. Add the red pepper flakes. Mix the remaining ingredients in a separate bowl and add to the saucepan. Bring to a low simmer and cook for 10 minutes.
Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
Lightly season the salmon steaks with salt and pepper. Oil the grill with vegetable oil. Place the fish down for 4 to 5 minutes. Flip the fish over and brush with the barbecue sauce, continue cooking for another 4 to 5 minutes, until opaque throughout. Divide the baby spinach among 4 plates. Place the salmon steaks on top of the beds of spinach while still very hot. This will make the spinach wilt.
