About the Recipe

Ingredients

  • 4 sheets of aluminum foil, each measuring 12 inches by 18 inches

  • 4 (5-ounce) salmon fillets

  • 1 lb of asparagus

  • 1 fresh lemon

  • Freshly ground black pepper

  • Seasoning salt

  • Lemon wedge (for garnish)

Preparation

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

  • Snap the ends off asparagus spears (they will break where tender) and divide into 4 equal portions.

  • Spray the center of each foil sheet with non-stick cooking spray.

  • Place one salmon fillet in the center of each sheet, top with a serving of the asparagus and drizzle with lemon juice.

  • Sprinkle with fresh ground pepper and salt or seasoning blend as desired.

  • Bring up the sides of foil and fold top over twice.

  • Seal ends, leaving room for air to circulate inside the packet.

  • Place packets on a cookie sheet and cook in oven for 15 to 18 minutes or until salmon is opaque.

  • Serve with lemon wedges on the side.

  • Please use caution when opening the foil packs, as the steam is very hot.
