Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6 ounces each) Salmon fillets
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 whole (zested and juiced) Lemon
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 0.25 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Fresh dill
- 1 clove (minced) Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Honey
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Step 2
Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Brush them with olive oil and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Step 3
In a small bowl, prepare the mustard dill sauce by combining Dijon mustard, Greek yogurt, lemon zest, lemon juice, fresh dill, minced garlic, and honey. Mix well and set aside.
Step 4
Once the grill is hot, place the salmon fillets on the grill skin-side down. Grill for 4-5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fillets, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Step 5
When the salmon is cooked through, transfer it to a serving plate and let it rest for 2 minutes.
Step 6
Drizzle the mustard dill sauce over the grilled salmon or serve it on the side as a dip.
Step 7
Garnish with additional fresh dill or lemon slices if desired and serve immediately.
