Instructions

Step 1: In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp olive oil, the zest and juice of 1 lemon, 2 tbsp chopped fresh dill, 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
Step 2: Place 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each) in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, turning to coat evenly. Marinate for 15 minutes at room temperature.
Step 3: Preheat grill to medium-high. Place salmon on the grill and cook for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
