Grilled Salmon

1 Salmon filet approximately 1 lb.
Olive oil
Dill weed, dried
Old bay seasoning or other seafood seasoning
Salt and Pepper to taste
Lemon wedges

Heat grill to medium, medium-high heat. I use a grill pan and line it with aluminum foil to make clean-up easier and grill flare-ups less.

Place salmon fillet on aluminum lined grill pan. Drizzle with a little olive oil. Sprinkle with dill, seafood seasoning and salt and pepper.

Don’t over use salt because your seasoning may also contain salt.

Grill on medium to medium-high heat for approximately 8 minutes per side or until fish flakes easily with fork or reaches 145 degrees F. Remove fish and enjoy.
