1
Prepare the Marinade
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
2
Marinate the Salmon
Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure that the fillets are well coated. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

3
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F or 190°C to 200°C).
4
Grill the Salmon
Remove the salmon fillets from the marinade and let any excess drip off. Place the fillets skin-side down on the grill. Grill for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and has nice grill marks.
5
Garnish and Serve
Once grilled to perfection, remove the salmon from the grill and sprinkle with fresh dill (or parsley) before serving.
