1. Stir together lemon zest and juice, oil, chopped rosemary, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Arrange salmon in shallow baking dish; drizzle with lemon juice mixture. Refrigerate 15 minutes. 
2. Meanwhile, spray grill rack with nonstick spray. Preheat grill to medium-high or prepare medium-high fire. 
3. With tongs, push 3 rosemary sprigs through grill rack onto lit burners. Place salmon and slices of lemon on grill rack and grill until fish is just opaque throughout and lemon is lightly charred along edges, about 5 minutes per side. Discard marinade.

Note: This recipe appears in the WW Family Meals Cookbook. If you enjoy grilling, this dish is for you. This dish will light up the grill and fill you up. Salmon is filled with good fats and it's good for your heart and waistline. Firm-fleshed fish is great for grilling. Salmon, halibut, catfish, arctic char, and trout are good choices for grilling fish because they are nice and thick and are juicy and delicious as a result. This dish has a nice taste to it. I do highly recommend adding garlic to the lemon juice mixture because garlic always makes everything taste better. Don't forget to serve a side of grilled vegetables of your choice alongside the salmon to make the meal complete.
