Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, Dijon mustard, honey, grated fresh ginger, minced garlic, and olive oil until well blended and slightly thickened.
  2. Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or resealable bag. Pour the marinade over the fish, ensuring it's evenly coated, and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
  3. Heat your grill to medium-high (375°F–400°F) and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
  4. Cook the salmon skin-side down for 4–5 minutes, then carefully flip the fillets and grill for another 4–5 minutes.
  5. Transfer the grilled salmon to a serving platter, garnish with lemon wedges, and serve immediately.
