1
Prepare the Salmon
Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and place them on a plate.
2
Season the Salmon
Drizzle the olive oil over the salmon fillets, then sprinkle salt and black pepper evenly on both sides.
3
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375-400°F or 190-200°C).
4
Grill the Salmon
Place the seasoned salmon fillets on the grill, skin-side down. Grill for about 6-8 minutes, then carefully flip and grill for an additional 4-6 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
5
Serve
Remove the salmon from the grill and let it rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
