Ingredients
Fish
- 1 lb Wild Caught Sockeye Salmon (can use any salmon)
- Marinade:
½ cup soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 teaspoon liquid smoke
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon curing salt (optional)
Directions
- Remove pin bones from fish fillet with needle nose pliers. Leave skin on fillet.
- With a sharp knife, slice long strips lengthwise ¼”-½” thick from the “head” of the fillet to the “tail”.
- Slice across the previously sliced long strips cutting into 3”-4” pieces.
- Assemble all the ingredients of marinade in a bowl or Ziploc bag and mix well.
- Add the salmon strips to the marinade and marinate for 6-24 hours in the refrigerator. Mix the strips several times during marinating for evenly coated strips.
- Strain jerky strips in a colander and then dry with paper towels to remove any excess marinade.
- Place strips on dehydrator trays and dry at 150F for 6 to 9 hours
- Jerky will be done when it is completely dry and to your texture liking. It took me about 9 hours to dry this jerky in my Excalibur Dehydrator.
- Remove skin from jerky and eat!
