Tips:
- For the best results, use fresh salmon fillets that are about 1 inch thick. Thinner fillets will cook too quickly and may become dry.
- Make sure the grill is hot before cooking the salmon. This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the fish and prevent it from sticking to the grill.
- Do not overcrowd the grill. Leave some space between the salmon fillets so that they can cook evenly.
- Cook the salmon for 8-10 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through. The salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork.
- Serve the salmon immediately with your favorite sides. Some good options include roasted vegetables, grilled potatoes, or a fresh salad.
