Instructions

Prepare the Salmon

Wash the salmon fillet and pat it dry with paper towels. Cut into portions if necessary.

Marinate the Salmon

In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic paste, black pepper, and salt. Add the salmon and gently toss to coat evenly. Cover the bowl and marinate for at least 20 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.

Grill the Salmon

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the marinated salmon fillets on the preheated grill grates. Grill for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Avoid overcooking.

Serve

Remove the salmon from the grill and serve immediately with Arabic Kuboos bread and garlic sauce. Enjoy!

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips for Perfect Grilled Salmon

For extra flavor, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade.
If you don't have a grill, you can pan-fry the salmon in a skillet over medium-high heat.
To ensure even cooking, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the salmon. It should reach 145°F (63°C).
Don't overcrowd the grill; this will lower the temperature and result in unevenly cooked salmon. Grill in batches if necessary.
