Step-by-Step Instructions
1
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, chopped fresh herbs, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to make the marinade.
2
Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and brush the marinade on both sides of the fish. Let it marinate for at least 10-15 minutes, or up to 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
3
Remove the salmon from the marinade, letting any excess liquid drip off. Place the fish on the grill, skin side down (if it has skin). Close the grill lid and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and golden brown.
4
Flip the salmon over and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check for internal temperature, which should be at least 145°F (63°C).
