1
Prepare the Marinade
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and chopped dill until well combined.
2
Marinate the Salmon
Place the salmon fillet in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the top. Ensure the salmon is evenly coated. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

3
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F or 200°C).
4
Grill the Salmon
Remove the salmon from the marinade and let any excess drip off. Place the salmon skin-side down on the grill. Grill for about 6-8 minutes without moving the fish.
5
Flip and Finish Cooking
Carefully flip the salmon using a spatula and grill for another 4-6 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
6
Rest and Serve
Remove the salmon from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with additional fresh dill and lemon wedges if desired.
