Method

Grilling Instructions

1

Prepare the Alderwood Grill

Soak the alderwood chips in water for at least 30 minutes. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

2

Marinate the Salmon

In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, fresh dill, salt, and black pepper. Brush this mixture onto the salmon fillets and let them marinate for about 15 minutes.

3

Add Alderwood Chips

Drain the soaked alderwood chips and place them in a smoker box or directly on the coals of the grill.

4

Grill the Salmon

Place the marinated salmon fillets skin-side down on the grill. Close the lid and grill for about 6-8 minutes on each side or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.

5

Serve

Remove the salmon from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy the salmon with your favorite sides.
