Steakhouse Grilled Salmon is my recipe of the day. It is made using my version of Red Lobster’s grill seasoning.
I didn’t want to call this Red Lobster Salmon though- since they make their fish various ways. And I didn’t want to confuse anyone.
How to make your own seafood grill seasoning
But- the grill seasoning can be used on all sorts of things, such as salmon, other types of fish, or incorporated into a seafood boil.
If you are hoping for a seasoning that can be used on steaks and chicken, hang tight. I will be posting the Longhorn Steakhouse seasoning very soon.
However, today I have used this seasoning on salmon as it is one of our favorite seafoods to throw on the grill. It is easily made with a few simple spices from your pantry.
Should I remove the Skin from the Salmon?
Removing skin before cooking is a valid question. But you don’t have to worry about it. The skin easily comes away at the bottom when the fish is done cooking. Plus, leaving it on helps keep the fish moist and flavorful.

These salmon recipes all look fantastic. My husband doesn’t care for salmon but perhaps one or more of these recipes will change his mind. If not, I’ll have more salmon to myself. He loses and I win!
