Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 oz each) Salmon fillets
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 2 minced Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh dill
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 pieces Lemon slices
Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, fresh dill, soy sauce, honey, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or a large resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the salmon, ensuring each fillet is well-coated. Let the salmon marinate in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes (or up to 30 minutes for deeper flavor).
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Remove the salmon from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off. Discard the remaining marinade.
Place the salmon fillets on the grill, skin-side down if applicable. Grill for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
During the last minute of grilling, add the lemon slices to the grill to lightly char them.
Remove the salmon and lemon slices from the grill. Serve the grilled salmon with the charred lemon slices on the side for added flavor. Enjoy your meal!
