1
Marinate the Salmon
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and chopped fresh dill. Mix well to create a marinade.
2
Coat the Salmon
Place the fresh salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure that all sides of the salmon are coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

3
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F).
4
Grill the Salmon
Remove the salmon from the marinade and discard any leftover marinade. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the grill grates. Grill for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
5
Serve
Once cooked, remove the salmon from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve with lemon wedges and extra dill sprigs for garnish, if desired.
