  • Yield: 2 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 (6 oz.) salmon fillets
  • Salt and pepper
  • 3 tablespoons of butter, melted
  • 1/2 tablespoon of lime juice
  • Zest of half of a lime
  • 1 small zucchini
  • 1 small yellow squash
  • 1/2 pound of asparagus
  • 1/2 small red onion, cut into chunks
  • 1/2 red pepper, sliced
  • 1/2 lime, cut into two wedges
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat grill to medium heat. Cut 2 sheets, enough to wrap the salmon and veggies, of heavy duty foil. Place salmon on center of aluminum foil and divide the veggies into each packet.
  2. In a small bowl add melted butter, lime juice, and zest of lime and mix. Pour evenly into each packet. Add lime wedge in each packet and bring up 2 sides of foil over salmon so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight ½ inch fold; fold again, allowing space for heat circulation and expansion. Fold other sides to seal.
  3. Place salmon packets onto grill and grill for 13-15 minutes flipping at about 7 minutes. To serve, carefully open packets and garnish with parsley.
