This easy grilled salmon can be fixed with either salmon steaks or fillets. The dill, garlic, and lemon marinade flavors the salmon then acts as a basting sauce.
Grill the salmon on an oiled gas or charcoal grill, or cook the fish in a stovetop grill pan.
Plan to let the salmon marinate in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours before cooking. This makes a fabulous meal with hot cooked rice or simply serve the fillets with a salad. A minted pea purée is an excellent vegetable dish with salmon.
Ingredients
- 4 salmon steaks or fillets
- For the Marinade:
- Juice of 2 lemons (about 1/4 cup)
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill (chopped) or 1 teaspoon dried dillweed
- 1 clove garlic (minced)
Steps to Make It
-
Place salmon in a shallow, non-reactive dish.
-
Combine marinade ingredients; pour over salmon.
-
Cover and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.
-
Remove the salmon from the marinade.
-
Pour the marinade into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and set aside.
-
Grill salmon directly over medium coals, basting with the boiled marinade, for about four minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily.
