1
Prepare the Salmon
Rinse the salmon fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
2
Season the Salmon
Drizzle olive oil over the salmon fillets and season both sides with salt and black pepper.

3
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F).
4
Grill the Salmon
Place the seasoned salmon fillets skin-side down on the grill. Grill for 5-7 minutes, then carefully flip and grill for another 4-6 minutes, or until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

5
Melt the Butter
In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter until it is fully liquefied.
6
Add Flavors
Stir in the minced garlic and lemon juice. Cook for about 1-2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant.
7
Finish the Sauce
Remove from heat and stir in the chopped parsley. Mix well.

8
Serve the Salmon
Place the grilled salmon on a plate and drizzle the lemon butter sauce over the top. Serve immediately.
