1
Prepare the Marinade
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
2
Marinate the Salmon
Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure that the salmon is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
3
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 375°F to 400°F (190°C to 200°C).
4
Grill the Salmon
Remove the salmon from the marinade and discard the marinade. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the grill. Grill for about 6-8 minutes on one side, then carefully flip and grill for another 4-6 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and has a nice char.
5
Garnish and Serve
Once cooked, remove the salmon from the grill and let it rest for a couple of minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
