Firecracker Grilled Salmon

We love Salmon. Mostly any way that it may come. When I saw this recipe in Southern Living magazine, I knew we had to try. It was really simple. It really boils down to just preparing the
marinade and grilling. It will be a big hit this summer when all the family comes into town. 
Below is the picture of some of the ingredients that you may have to make a trip to the store to buy.

Ingredients 
6 (6-oz.) salmon fillets 
Some of the ingredients you'll need
1/2 cup vegetable oil 
1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce 
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar 
1 tablespoon honey 
2 teaspoons finely chopped garlic 
2 teaspoons dried crushed red pepper 
1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger 
1 teaspoon sesame oil 
1/2 teaspoon table salt 
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
