This recipe can be varied in a number of ways\nas desired.\n\n## Source\n\n-   http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/grilled-pastrami-style-salmon\n\n## Ingredients\n\n-   1 (680g / 1 ½-pound) center-cut salmon fillet\n-   1 tablespoon dark brown sugar\n-   1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper\n-   1 teaspoon kosher salt\n-   ¼ to ½ teaspoon ground allspice\n-   1 teaspoon garlic powder\n-   1 teaspoon ground ginger\n-   1 teaspoon ground coriander\n-   ½ teaspoon olive oil\n-   Cooking spray\n\n## Preparation\n\n1.  Prepare grill.\n2.  In a small bowl, combine the **brown sugar**, **black pepper**,\n    **salt**, **allspice**, **garlic powder**, **ground ginger** and\n    **ground coriander**.\n3.  Place salmon fillet, skin side down, on a cutting board or work\n    surface; brush evenly with olive oil.\n4.  Sprinkle spice mixture evenly over salmon; gently rub mixture into\n    fish.\n5.  Cover lightly with plastic wrap, and chill 15 minutes.\n6.  Place fish, skin side down, on a grill rack coated with cooking\n    spray; grill 10 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with\n    a fork.\n\n## Notes\n\n-   **Spice-blend step corrected (2026-07-30):** step 2 read \"Combine\n    first 7 ingredients\", a positional reference inherited from the\n    source, whose list put the spices before the fish. Counted against\n    the list order here it said to combine the salmon fillet into the\n    rub and it left the ground coriander unused, while step 4 then\n    sprinkled the mixture *onto* the salmon. The seven spices are now\n    named explicitly; no quantity changed and the coriander the\n    description calls for is back in the blend.\n","draft":false,"servings":"4","prep_time":"20 minutes","cook_time":"10 minutes","total_time":"30 minutes","source_name":"MyRecipes","source_url":"http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/grilled-pastrami-style-salmon","created_at":"2019-03-03T02:52:17Z","updated_at":"2026-07-30T22:29:00.419577Z","categories":["Main"],"tags":["Pastrami","Salmon"],"methods":["Grill"],"themes":["Seafood"],"ingredients":[{"section":"","items":["-   1 (680g / 1 ½-pound) center-cut salmon fillet","-   1 tablespoon dark brown sugar","-   1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper","-   1 teaspoon kosher salt","-   ¼ to ½ teaspoon ground allspice","-   1 teaspoon garlic powder","-   1 teaspoon ground ginger","-   1 teaspoon ground coriander","-   ½ teaspoon olive oil","-   Cooking spray"],"parsed":[{"raw":"-   1 (680g / 1 ½-pound) center-cut salmon fillet","qty":1,"item":"center-cut salmon fillet"},{"raw":"-   1 tablespoon dark brown sugar","qty":1,"unit":"tbsp","item":"dark brown sugar"},{"raw":"-   1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper","qty":1,"unit":"tsp","item":"coarsely ground black pepper"},{"raw":"-   1 teaspoon kosher salt","qty":1,"unit":"tsp","item":"kosher salt"},{"raw":"-   ¼ to ½ teaspoon ground allspice","qty":0.25,"qty_max":0.5,"unit":"tsp","item":"ground allspice"},{"raw":"-   1 teaspoon garlic powder","qty":1,"unit":"tsp","item":"garlic powder"},{"raw":"-   1 teaspoon ground ginger","qty":1,"unit":"tsp","item":"ground ginger"},{"raw":"-   1 teaspoon ground coriander","qty":1,"unit":"tsp","item":"ground coriander"},{"raw":"-   ½ teaspoon olive oil","qty":0.5,"unit":"tsp","item":"olive oil"},{"raw":"-   Cooking spray","item":"Cooking spray"}]}],"servings_int":4,"qc":{"status":"passed","last_checked_at":"2026-07-30T22:33:06.323921Z","checked_by":"claude-code","standard_version":"2026-07-29","findings_count":0,"stale":false}}
