Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces salmon fillets
- 0.5 cups dry white wine
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 4 slices lemon slices
Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together white wine, olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped fresh dill, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag, and pour the marinade over the fillets. Make sure each fillet is fully coated.
Cover the dish with plastic wrap (or seal the bag) and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to soak into the salmon.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Remove the salmon fillets from the marinade and reserve the leftover liquid. Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel and place a lemon slice on top of each fillet.
Place the salmon fillets on the grill, skin-side down if applicable. Cook for 4–5 minutes per side or until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Baste occasionally with the reserved marinade, but stop basting for the final 2 minutes of cooking to ensure food safety.
Remove the salmon from the grill and let it rest for 2–3 minutes before serving.
Serve the grilled salmon hot, garnished with extra fresh dill or lemon slices if desired. Pair with a green salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
