Cut the salmon fillets into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped celery, and diced carrot. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened and the onion is translucent.
Pour in the fish stock or broth and bring to a gentle simmer.
Add the salmon pieces to the pot and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily.
Stir in the heavy cream and frozen green peas. Allow the soup to simmer for another 3 minutes until the peas are heated through and the soup is creamy.
Season the soup with salt, ground black pepper, and fresh dill. Stir well to combine.
Add lemon juice and stir again, adjusting the seasoning if necessary.
Serve hot, garnished with additional fresh dill if desired.
