1
Prepare the Marinade
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and chopped fresh dill.
2
Marinate the Salmon
Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish, pour the marinade over the salmon, and ensure they are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

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 place it skin-side down on the preheated grill. Grill for about 6-8 minutes on one side.
5
Flip and Finish Grilling
Carefully flip the salmon fillets and grill for an additional 4-6 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

6
Plate the Dish
Remove the grilled salmon from the grill and let it rest for a couple of minutes before serving. Garnish with lemon wedges and fresh dill sprigs if desired.
7
Serve
Serve warm with your choice of sides, such as grilled vegetables or a fresh salad.
