Steps:
- Light charcoal briquettes in a grill and brush the grilling rack with oil to keep the salmon from sticking.
- While the grill is heating, lay the salmon skin side down on a cutting board and cut it crosswise into 4 equal pieces. Whisk together the mustard, soy sauce, olive oil, and garlic in a small bowl. Drizzle half of the marinade onto the salmon and allow it to sit for 10 minutes.
- Place the salmon skin side down on the hot grill; discard the marinade the fish was sitting in. Grill for 4 to 5 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish. Turn carefully with a wide spatula and grill for another 4 to 5 minutes. The salmon will be slightly raw in the center, but don't worry; it will keep cooking as it sits.
- Transfer the fish to a flat plate, skin side down, and spoon the reserved marinade on top. Allow the fish to rest for 10 minutes. Remove the skin and serve warm, at room temperature, or chilled.

Tips:
- Prep Your Salmon: Before cooking, pat your salmon fillets dry with paper towels to help achieve crispy skin.
- Marinate or Not: Marinating your salmon is optional, but it can add extra flavor and moisture. If you choose to marinate, use a flavorful mixture such as olive oil, lemon juice, herbs, and spices.
- Use a Well-Seasoned Grill: Make sure your grill is heated to the proper temperature and well-seasoned to prevent the salmon from sticking. Lightly oil the grates before placing the salmon fillets on them.
- Cook Over Medium-High Heat: Start by cooking the salmon over medium-high heat for a few minutes to sear the outside and create a crispy crust. Then, reduce the heat to medium-low and continue cooking until the salmon is cooked through.
- Monitor the Cooking Time: Salmon cooks relatively quickly, so it's important to keep an eye on it to prevent overcooking. The cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the fillets.
- Use a Thermometer: The best way to ensure that your salmon is cooked perfectly is to use a meat thermometer. Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the salmon fillet and cook until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 155°F (68°C) for medium.
Conclusion:
Grilled salmon with a Dijon-rosemary crust is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. The crispy skin, tender flesh, and flavorful crust make this salmon a hit with everyone. Whether you choose to marinate the salmon or not, follow these tips to ensure that you achieve perfectly cooked salmon every time.
