Notes
I try to catch the garlic pieces and add it into the pan over the salmon fillets, so no flavor is wasted.
Depending on how thick your salmon fillets are you might need more or less time cooking them, to know when they are ready, open one and the insides should be looking opaque pink (less cooked) or opaque orange (totally cooked), but never transparent (raw)
Serve this delicious grilled salmon with a quick salad of choice and some quinoa, lentils or rice for the perfect super well-balanced plate.
