1
Prepare the Marinade
In a medium bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped dill, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well mixed.

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

3
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400-450°F or 200-230°C).
4
Grill the Salmon
Remove the salmon from the marinade and discard the marinade. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the grill. Grill for about 4-6 minutes on each side, depending on the thickness of the fillet, until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

5
Serve
Remove the salmon from the grill and let it rest for a couple of minutes. Serve warm with your favorite side dishes.
