Tips:
- To ensure that the salmon is cooked evenly, select fillets of uniform thickness. If the fillets' thickness differs significantly, adjust the cooking time accordingly.
- Before marinating the salmon, pat it dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This allows the marinade to penetrate the fish more effectively, resulting in more flavor.
- The marinade not only adds flavor to the salmon but also helps keep it moist and tender during grilling. Don't skip the marinating step, as it makes a noticeable difference in the final dish.
- Use a flavorful oil for the marinade, such as olive oil or grapeseed oil. These oils help enhance the flavor of the salmon and prevent it from sticking to the grill.
- When grilling the salmon, preheat the grill to a high temperature before placing the fish on it. This helps sear the outside of the fish quickly, creating a crispy crust while keeping the inside moist.
- Avoid overcooking the salmon, as this can make it dry and tough. Cook the fillets just until they are opaque throughout, but still slightly pink in the center.
- Let the grilled salmon rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the fish, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
Conclusion:
Grilled salmon with citrus-dill marinade is a delicious and healthy dish that's perfect for a summer gathering or a weeknight dinner. The combination of citrus and dill imparts a refreshing and vibrant flavor to the salmon, while the grilling method ensures a crispy crust and tender, juicy interior. Serve the salmon with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, quinoa salad, or grilled asparagus, for a complete and satisfying meal.
