Preparation time: 2 minutes
Cooking time: approximately 12 minutes (cooking time may be increased or decreased depending on the fillet's thickness)
Ingredients
- ¼ teaspoon olive oil
- 1 (4-ounce) salmon fillet
- Pinch of salt
- Pinch of lemon pepper
- Wedge of lemon
Instructions
Preheat grill to medium heat. Rub olive oil over salmon, coating evenly. Sprinkle with salt and lemon pepper. Grill salmon over medium heat about 6 minutes on each side, or until it flakes easily when pierced with a fork (for ease in turning salmon, a grill basket coated with cooking spray or a wide metal spatula can be used). Remove any skin. Serve with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
