Grilled Garlic and Lime Salmon Fillets Recipe

This Grilled Garlic and Lime Salmon Fillets recipe brings together the savory richness of salmon with the refreshing zing of lime and the depth of garlic. It's a quick, flavorful, and healthy dish perfect for grilling season or a weeknight dinner.

Ingredients

(Serves 4)

For the Marinade:

  • 4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon lime zest
  • 1 teaspoon honey (optional, for sweetness)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

For Grilling:

  • Extra olive oil for brushing the grill
  • Lime wedges for serving

Instructions

1. Prepare the Marinade

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, lime zest, honey (if using), salt, and pepper.
  • Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over the fillets.
  • Gently toss the salmon to coat and let it marinate for at least 15-30 minutes, or up to 1 hour, in the refrigerator.

2. Preheat the Grill

  • Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. If you’re using a charcoal grill, wait until the coals are glowing red.
  • Lightly brush the grill grates with olive oil to prevent the fish from sticking.

3. Grill the Salmon

  • Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the grill.
  • Grill for about 4-6 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fillets. The salmon should easily flake with a fork when done, and the internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
  • Avoid overcooking, as salmon can dry out quickly.

4. Serve

  • Once cooked, remove the salmon from the grill and place it on a serving platter.
  • Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley and serve with lime wedges on the side for extra citrus flavor.

Tips

  • Skin-on or Skinless: If using skinless fillets, you may need to be a bit more careful while flipping to avoid the fillets falling apart. Skin-on fillets are easier to handle and provide extra flavor during grilling.
  • Grilling Tip: If you’re worried about the salmon sticking to the grill, use a grill basket designed for fish or foil to make flipping easier.
  • Side Pairings: Serve with grilled vegetables, a fresh salad, or a side of rice for a complete meal.

This Grilled Garlic and Lime Salmon is quick, delicious, and packed with flavor, making it a perfect dish for any occasion. 🌿🐟
