Prepare the Marinade<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, lime juice, lime zest, minced garlic, honey, soy sauce, salt, and black pepper until well combined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2. Marinate the Salmon<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Cover and refrigerate for 15\u201330 minutes to allow the flavors to absorb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3. Preheat the Grill<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Grill the Salmon<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Remove the salmon from the marinade, letting the excess drip off. Place the fillets skin-side down on the grill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cook for 4\u20135 minutes per side, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>5.
