Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic (chop finely), fresh dill, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well blended.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Salmon

    Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure the fillets are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Prepare the Grill

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, ensure the coals are glowing and covered with ash.

  2. 4

    Grill the Salmon

    Remove the salmon from the marinade and place it on the grill, skin side down. Grill for about 6-8 minutes on one side, then carefully flip and grill for another 4-6 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.

  3. 5

    Prepare Optional Sides

    If desired, toss asparagus in olive oil, salt, and pepper and grill alongside the salmon for the last 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.
