1
Marinate the Salmon
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, and fresh dill. Add salt and black pepper to taste.
2
Coat the Salmon
Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

3
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, approximately 375°F (190°C).
4
Grill the Salmon
Remove the salmon from the marinade and let excess marinade drip off. Place the fillets skin-side down on the grill. Grill for about 6-8 minutes, depending on thickness.
5
Flip and Finish
Carefully flip the salmon fillets using a spatula and grill for another 4-6 minutes until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

6
Plate the Salmon
Remove the grilled salmon from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve immediately with your favorite sides.
