If you prefer to cook on the barbecue, you may need to shorten the cooking time a little more depending on the temperature of the fire. A medium-thick salmon fillet cooks in an average of 10-12 minutes on an electric grill. If you cook longer, the fish will dry out and lose its flavor.

If you want to fillet salmon on the grill, make sure the skin is on. Salmon is a delicate fish and cooks quickly, making it prone to falling apart. The skin helps to keep it whole and prevents it from falling apart during cooking.

We will prepare a sauce with butter, lemon, garlic and dill and apply some of it on the fish during cooking, while the rest is reserved for serving.

You will love this recipe that you can serve with lemon slices and dill. Bon appetit in advance 🙂
