Ingredients
- 8oz Salmon Filet (I used Copper River Salmon for this recipe)
- 2 garlic cloves (minced fine)
- 1 lemon rind (zested)
- 3 Teaspoons fresh dill (chopped)

Note
Grill temperatures vary, so keep an eye on your fish. Just remember to start cooking skin side down! I served my salmon with rainbow chard sauteed with garlic, olive oil and salt and pepper. A perfect light supper!
