  • Author: Tyler
  • Total Time: 20 minutes

Description

Grilled salmon is a versatile dish that pairs well with various side dishes such as grilled vegetables, rice pilaf, or a fresh salad. Enjoy your delicious and healthy grilled salmon straight from the BBQ!


Ingredients

Scale

4 salmon fillets (about 6 ounces each)

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

2 garlic cloves, minced

1 teaspoon dried dill

Salt and black pepper to taste

Lemon wedges, for serving

Fresh dill, for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Preheat the BBQ to medium-high heat.

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried dill, salt, and black pepper.

Place the salmon fillets on a large plate or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the salmon, making sure to coat each fillet evenly. Let it marinate for about 15 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.

Meanwhile, lightly oil the BBQ grates to prevent the salmon from sticking.

Once the BBQ is heated and the salmon has marinated, place the salmon fillets directly on the preheated grill, skin side down. Close the lid and cook for about 4-5 minutes, or until the salmon easily releases from the grill grates.

Carefully flip the salmon fillets using a spatula, being cautious not to break the fish. Close the lid and continue grilling for another 4-5 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked to your desired level of doneness. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C) for perfectly cooked salmon.

Remove the salmon from the BBQ and transfer to a serving platter. Garnish with fresh dill (if desired) and serve with lemon wedges on the side
