Place salmon in baking dish, cover and allow to marinate in refrigerator ⏱️ 15 - 30 minutes, then flip salmon to opposite side and allow to marinate ⏱️ 15 - 30 minutes longer. Preheat a grill over medium-high heat during last ⏱️ 10 minutes of marinating.

Brush grill grates with oil. Place salmon on grill and grill about ⏱️ 3 minutes per side or until just cooked through (turn carefully as the salmon will be fragile).
