1
Prepare the Marinade
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped fresh dill, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.
2
Marinate the Salmon
Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the salmon, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.

3
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, ensure the coals are hot and ashed over.
4
Grill the Salmon
Remove the salmon from the marinade and discard the excess marinade. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the grill. Grill for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and is cooked through.
5
Serve
Remove the grilled salmon from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve with lemon wedges and fresh dill sprigs for garnish.
