How to Cook Teriyaki Salmon on Blackstone Griddle

• Step 1 – Preheat the Blackstone grill over medium high heat (approximately 400 degrees F).  Spread the avocado oil onto the grill and use a spatula to spread it around.

• Step 2 – Place the salmon filets on the grill on top of the oil.  Season it with salt and pepper. Cook the salmon for 4-5 minutes per side until the salmon reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees F.  

• Step 3 – In a small saucepan, whisk together the sauce ingredients. 

• Step 4 – Place this saucepan on the Blackstone grill next to the salmon.  Whisk the sauce until it’s heated through and thickened. 

• Step 5 – Remove the salmon fillets from the grill.  Top it with the teriyaki sauce from the saucepan.  Serve topped with the sesame seeds and green onions. 

Expert Tips

• Preheat Griddle – Preheat the griddle to medium heat before placing the Salmon on the griddle.
• Oil Griddle – Before placing the Salmon on the Griddle make sure you oil the griddle. This prevents the salmon from sticking to the griddle.
• Seasoning the Salmon – Salmon doesn’t need a lot of seasoning. When adding the seasoning, season both side of the salmon with your hands.
• Cook thoroughly – Make sure your salmon reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees before removing from the griddle.

How long do you Cook Salmon on a Griddle

Cooking salmon on griddle doesn’t take long. But to ensure your salmon is thoroughly cook use an instant-read thermometer.

A regular size salmon will be done about when cooked about 5 minutes on each side. Meat thermometer makes sure that the salmon is done. You want your salmon to reach a safe internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.

Cooking time will vary based on the side of your salmon, but it shouldn’t take more than 10 minutes to cook your salmon.
