Ingredients
  

  • 4 pieces salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (for grilling)
  • 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill (chopped, plus extra for garnish)
  • to taste salt
  • to taste pepper

Method
 

  1. Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and brush both sides with olive oil. Season generously with salt and pepper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine Dijon mustard, heavy cream, lemon juice, minced garlic, and chopped dill. Whisk until smooth.
  3. Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour half of the creamy Dijon sauce over them. Let them marinate for 15-20 minutes.
  4. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Ensure that the grill grate is clean and lightly oiled.
  5. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the grill and cook undisturbed for about 4-5 minutes. Flip gently and grill for an additional 3-4 minutes until cooked through.
  6. Remove the salmon from the grill and drizzle with the remaining creamy Dijon sauce over each fillet. Garnish with extra fresh dill before serving warm.
