In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped dill, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Marinate the Salmon
Place the thick cut salmon fillets in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the salmon, ensuring that each piece is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

Preheat the Grill or Oven
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Cook the Salmon
Remove the salmon from the marinade and let excess marinade drip off. Place the salmon skin-side down on the grill or a lined baking sheet if using the oven. Grill for about 6-8 minutes per side, or bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes, until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

Serve
Transfer the cooked salmon to a serving platter. Garnish with lemon wedges and extra dill if desired. Serve immediately.
