Servings 4

Ingredients
  

  • 4 whole wheat rolls
  • 1 lb of salmon
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • ¼ cup orange juice
  • 1 cup of your favorite bbq sauce

  • 2 cups of shredded cabbage

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  • Lightly brush your salmon with canola oil, season with salt and pepper and place on hot grill flesh side down for about 5-7 minutes on each side.
  • While fish is cooking, make the sauce.
  • Pour orange juice into sauce pan and reduce down for about 3-5 minutes, add BBQ sauce and stir until heated through.
  • While the salmon is still on the grill, brush the flesh side of the salmon with BBQ sauce and let cook, can do this 1-2 times to create glaze.
  • Once the salmon is done to your liking (about 10-15 minutes), remove from grill and set aside.
  • To make the coleslaw (can be done in advance), in a medium bowl whisk together yogurt, vinegar, honey and season with salt and pepper. Add in the cabbage and toss to coat.
  • Serve the salmon on toasted bun, top with coleslaw and extra BBQ sauce if needed.
