Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces salmon steaks
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 lemon lemon slices
Instructions
Rinse the salmon steaks under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.
In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, chopped dill, chopped parsley, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Place the salmon steaks in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring each piece is evenly coated. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes, turning once halfway through.
Preheat a grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Remove the salmon from the marinade and place each steak on the grill skin-side down.
Grill the salmon steaks for about 5 minutes per side, or until they are just cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Gently flip the steaks to ensure they don't break.
While grilling, place lemon slices alongside the salmon on the grill to add a smoky lemon flavor.
Once cooked, remove the salmon steaks from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes.
Serve the salmon steaks warm with grilled lemon slices on the side, garnished with additional fresh dill or parsley if desired.
