Grilled Salmon with Lemon and Thyme

Yield: 10 servings

4 lb Salmon fillets; center cut,
3 tablespoon Cognac; or other brandy
1/4 cup Lemon peel; minced
2 tablespoon Shallot; minced
1 1/2 tablespoon Coarse salt
1 1/2 tablespoon Brown sugar
1 tablespoon Thyme; fresh, minced or 1 tsp dry
3/4 tsp Pepper

Place salmon fillets on heavy large baking sheet. Rub Cognac over both sides of fish. Mix together all remaining ingredients in small bowl. Rub over both sides of fish. Cover with plastic wrap. Top with another baking sheet. Weight with heavy object. Refrigerate at least 6 hours or overnight.

Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Grill fish until cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to plates and serve.

NOTE:
I recommend a sturdy red wine, such as a Beujolais from Moulin-a-Vent. I also recommend serving with sautéed zucchini. You could also diagonally slice thickly some zucchini with peel left on and brush with butter, lemon and thyme mixture and grill next to the fish; a Griffo grill would help but if you sliced the zucchini thick enough and on a strong enough diagonal, I don't think you would have problems with it falling through the grill. Some fresh steamed green beans with butter and freshly ground pepper would also be good.
