Preheat the gas grill with two burners on high heat.

Take out about 3 tablespoons of the sauce and mix it with 3 tablespoons of water for the marinade.

Marinate the salmon fillets in the marinade for 30 minutes in the fridge.

Remove the salmon from the marinade and pat dry with a paper towel.

Brush the salmon fillets with a little oil and season with salt and pepper.

Place the salmon fillets flesh side down on the grill and cook for about 2-3 minutes, watching for the side to turn lighter pink.

Flip the salmon fillets and brush with the glaze, then close the lid and cook for another 1-2 minutes until opaque but still slightly dark pink in the middle.
