2 Tablespoons Avocado Oil
1 Large Fresh Lemon (juice)
3 Cloves Garlic (minced)
2 Tablespoons Fresh Dill (chopped)
Sea Salt & Black Pepper (to taste)


Instructions

  1. Remove the salmon fillets from the refrigerator and pat them dry with a paper towel
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together avocado oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, and chopped dill
  3. Brush the marinade generously over the flesh side of the salmon and sprinkle with sea salt and black pepper
  4. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat
  5. Grill the salmon skin-side down for approximately 6 to 8 minutes
  6. Carefully flip the fillets and cook flesh side for another 2 to 3 minutes
  7. Remove the salmon from the grill and let it rest for 3 minutes before serving
