Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. This will be used to coat the salmon.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Salmon

    Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel. Place them on a plate and brush both sides with the marinade mixture.

Grilling

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375-400°F or 190-200°C).

  2. 4

    Grill the Salmon

    Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the grill. Grill for about 6-8 minutes on the first side.

  3. 5

    Flip and Add Lemon Butter

    Carefully flip the salmon fillets using a spatula. In a small saucepan, melt the butter and squeeze the juice of the lemon into it. Drizzle this lemon butter over the salmon. Continue grilling for an additional 4-5 minutes until the salmon is cooked through.

Serving

  1. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the salmon from the grill and let it rest for a couple of minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
