INGREDIENTS
- 4 salmon fillets (about 6 ounces each)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Zest and juice of 1 lemon
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Lemon wedges, for serving
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If you're using a stovetop grill pan, heat it over medium-high heat.
- In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, parsley, dill, salt, and black pepper.
- Place the salmon fillets on a plate or shallow dish and brush both sides with the olive oil mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated. Let them marinate for about 15-20 minutes at room temperature.
- Once the grill is hot, lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking. Place the salmon fillets on the grill, skin side down if they have skin.
- Grill the salmon for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until it easily flakes with a fork and has nice grill marks.
- Once cooked, remove the salmon from the grill and transfer it to a serving platter. Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
