Spice-It-Up Salmon

4 garlic cloves, minced
1 t sea salt
Ground black pepper to taste
1 T fresh thyme leaves (or 1 t dried thyme leaves)
1/2 teaspoon fresh grated ginger (I always do 1 T because I LOVE ginger)
2 pinches of cayenne pepper
2 pinches of cumin
2 T extra-virgin olive oil
2 lbs. wild-caught salmon fillets

Heat your grill to medium or your oven to 350 degrees.

In a small bowl, add the minced garlic cloves and all other spices and two tablespoons of olive oil.

Place the salmon fillets skin down on a large sheet of tin foil. Fold the sides up on the tin foil to make a tin foil try. Rub the spice mixture on top of the salmon fillets, and then place the tin foil tray on your grill or in your oven. Cover the salmon loosely with more tin foil and close your grill. Cook time varies based on your grill or oven and the thickness of the salmon fillet. Typically it will take 10 - 15 minutes. Make sure that the salmon is warm all the way through but still a bit pink in the middle. Serve with lemon wedges.
