Morgan's Grilled Fish

Recipe View Prepare the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium heat (around 350-400°F or 175-200°C). Ensure the grates are clean and lightly oiled. (5 minutes)

Recipe View Create the Herb Marinade: In a shallow glass dish or resealable bag, whisk together the olive oil, parsley, thyme, rosemary, and minced garlic. Add the lemon zest for an extra layer of flavor. (2 minutes)

Recipe View Marinate the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets into the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Squeeze fresh lemon juice evenly over the salmon. Cover the dish or seal the bag, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours. (30 minutes - 2 hours)

Recipe View Grill the Salmon: Remove the salmon from the refrigerator. Discard the remaining marinade. Carefully place the salmon fillets onto the preheated grill, skin-side down if using skin-on fillets. (1 minute)

Recipe View Cook to Perfection: Grill the salmon for approximately 4-6 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fillets and the heat of your grill. The salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C). (8-12 minutes)

Recipe View Rest and Serve: Once cooked, remove the salmon from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful fillet. (3 minutes)
