    2 -3 teaspoons paprika
    1 teaspoon ground cumin
    1 -3 garlic clove (depending on preference)
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    5 tablespoons olive oil (to make it lower calorie I use less olive oil and more lemon juice)
Preparation
    In a food processor, combine all ingredients (except salmon and 1/2 the olive oil) and blend.
    Drizzle in the remaining olive oil while blending until desired consistency is obtained.
    Add more of any ingredient to suit your taste.
    Place salmon in a baking dish and coat with 2/3 of the mixture on both sides (reserve 1/3 for later). Let marinade in refrigerator for up to an hour.
    Place on grill and cook for 6 to 10 minutes.
    When the salmon in no longer opaque remove from the grill and place on a serving platter.
    Brush the salmon with the remaining mixture.
