Ingredients

  • 4 pieces salmon steaks
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 lemon lemon slices

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the salmon steaks under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, chopped dill, chopped parsley, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

Place the salmon steaks in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring each piece is evenly coated. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes, turning once halfway through.

Step 4

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

Step 5

Remove the salmon from the marinade and place each steak on the grill skin-side down.

Step 6

Grill the salmon steaks for about 5 minutes per side, or until they are just cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Gently flip the steaks to ensure they don't break.

Step 7

While grilling, place lemon slices alongside the salmon on the grill to add a smoky lemon flavor.

Step 8

Once cooked, remove the salmon steaks from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes.

Step 9

Serve the salmon steaks warm with grilled lemon slices on the side, garnished with additional fresh dill or parsley if desired.
