How to Make Grilled Salmon
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- Pat the salmon fillet dry with paper towels. This helps achieve a nice sear.
- In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
- Generously brush the salmon fillet with the olive oil mixture, ensuring both sides are coated.
- Place the salmon fillet on the preheated grill.
- Grill for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time will depend on the thickness of your fillet.
- If using fresh herbs, sprinkle them over the salmon during the last minute of grilling.
- Remove the salmon from the grill and let it rest for a minute or two before serving.
- Serve immediately with lemon wedges (optional).
