For best results, use fresh, high-quality salmon fillets. Wild-caught salmon is often richer in flavor and higher in omega-3 fatty acids. If you don't have an outdoor grill, you can use a grill pan on your stovetop or bake the salmon in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for 12-15 minutes, or until cooked through. Feel free to adjust the amount of lemon juice and cayenne pepper to suit your taste preferences. The dill sauce can be made ahead of time and gently reheated before serving. Store any leftover sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Grill the salmon until it flakes easily with a fork, about 3 to 5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fillets.
