Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F or 200°C).
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, minced garlic, dill, black pepper, paprika, onion powder, thyme, parsley, and ground mustard.
Brush the salmon steaks generously with the prepared marinade, ensuring each piece is well-coated.
Allow the salmon to marinate at room temperature for about 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Place the salmon steaks on the grill, skin-side down. Cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and is cooked through to your liking.
Remove from the grill and let the salmon rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Serve the grilled salmon steaks with lemon wedges and optional garnishes like additional fresh herbs or a sprinkle of fresh black pepper.
