We’re willing to bet that this easy grilled salmon in foil recipe will become a regular in your weeknight dinner rotation. Cooking fish in foil keeps it super-moist, plus you don’t have to worry about the fish sticking to the grill. Butter, lemon pepper and fresh parsley perk up the flavors for this versatile main course. Cook some vegetables, such as asparagus, zucchini and corn, alongside the fish packets for a healthy dinner that’s ready in less than 30 minutes.
Ingredients
- 4 (6 ounce) skin-on salmon fillets
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon lemon pepper
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 8 thin slices lemon (from 1 lemon)
- 4 sprigs flat-leaf parsley
Directions
Preheat grill to medium-high (400-450 degrees F). Place 4 (12-inch) foil squares in a single layer on a work surface; coat with cooking spray. Place 1 salmon fillet, skin-side down, in the center of each. Top each fillet with 1 1/2 teaspoons butter, 1/4 teaspoon lemon pepper, 1/8 teaspoon salt, 2 lemon slices and 1 parsley sprig. Crimp the sides of each foil packet together to tightly seal. Place the packets on the grill; cover and grill until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 8 to 10 minutes.
