Ingredients

• 4 pieces salmon fillets (skin-on, 6 ounces each)
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 0.5 teaspoons ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped (optional, for garnish)
• 4 pieces lemon wedges (for serving)

Directions

Step 1

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, honey, minced garlic, ground black pepper, and salt to create the marinade.

Step 2

Place the salmon fillets in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the fillets, ensuring they are evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and refrigerate for 15-30 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse.

Step 3

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.

Step 4

Remove the salmon fillets from the marinade and pat them dry with a paper towel. Discard the used marinade.

Step 5

Place the salmon fillets on the grill, skin-side down. Close the grill lid and cook for 4-5 minutes.

Step 6

Carefully flip the salmon fillets using a spatula. Grill for an additional 3-5 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and has reached an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

Step 7

Remove the salmon from the grill and transfer to a serving platter. Let it rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.

Step 8

Garnish the grilled salmon with chopped fresh dill, if using, and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
