Step 1
Preheat grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dill, thyme, salt, and pepper.
Step 3
Pat salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Brush both sides with the herb-lemon mixture.
Step 4
Place salmon skin-side down on the grill. Cook for 6-7 minutes without moving.
Step 5
Carefully flip the fillets and cook for 4-5 minutes on the other side until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily.
Step 6
Transfer salmon to a serving platter and garnish with fresh lemon slices.
