Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 oz each) salmon fillets
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 cloves, minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 2 tablespoons, chopped (optional for garnish) fresh dill
- 4 pieces (optional for garnish) lemon slices
Instructions
Prepare the marinade. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, honey, soy sauce, ground black pepper, and salt until well combined.
Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the salmon, ensuring the fillets are evenly coated. Cover the dish or seal the bag, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (up to 2 hours for maximum flavor).
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F/200°C). If using a gas grill, lightly oil the grill grates with a paper towel dipped in vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
Remove the salmon from the marinade and let any excess marinade drip off. Discard the leftover marinade.
Place the salmon on the preheated grill, skin-side down if your fillets have skin. Grill for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Use a spatula to carefully flip the fillets halfway through cooking.
Once cooked, transfer the salmon fillets to a serving platter. Garnish with fresh dill and lemon slices if desired.
Serve immediately with your choice of sides such as roasted vegetables, rice, or a fresh salad. Enjoy your Super Grilled Salmon!
