Ingredients:
- 1 lb salmon fillet, skin on
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp dried dill
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions:
-
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 375-400°F).
-
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried dill, salt, and pepper.
-
Brush the mixture over the flesh side of the salmon fillet, making sure to coat it evenly.
-
Place the salmon filet skin-side down on the grill and close the lid.
-
Grill the salmon for 10-12 minutes, or until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. (Note: Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of your salmon fillet.)
-
Once the salmon is fully cooked, remove it from the grill and carefully open the foil packet. Use a spatula to transfer the salmon to a serving platter, discarding the skin if desired.
-
Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs or lemon wedges if desired.
