Outdoor grill- Preheat grill to medium and lightly brush grill grates with oil. Carefully transfer the salmon to your preheated grill, skin-side-dow, discarding any leftover marinade. Cook the salmon for approximately 5-8 minutes per side (time will vary depending on the thickness of your fish).
Indoor grill (I used the Philips Smokeless Grill ) - Set to "grill" and preheat. Carefully brush the grates with a light coat of canola oil and transfer the salmon chunks to the grill, skin-side-down. Discard marinade. Allow the salmon to cook for approximately 5-7 minutes on each side, or until it starts to release white, creamy-looking beads on its surface (this means it's done). Remove the salmon from the grill and transfer it to a clean plate to rest.
As the salmon rests, transfer the sliced slider buns to the grill and toast for 2-3 minutes, taking care not to burn them. Turn off the heat.
Remove the buns and top with a thick layer of microgreens, your cooked salmon, watermelon radish (if using), and lemon garlic aioli. Delicious served immediately, or leftover.
- I asked my local supermarket butcher to cut my salmon into slider-sized pieces. If this is not available for you, slice them into pieces that are a little less than 2x2 inches.
- I used small brioche buns, but any small slider bun will work.
- Salmon should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees F as measured by a digital meat thermometer.
