  • Difficulty: Beginner

Zutaten

  • 4 (6 oz) salmon fillets
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 lemons, thinly sliced
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 sheets of aluminum foil (about 12x18 inches each)

Anleitung

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F).

  2. Lay out 4 sheets of aluminum foil and brush the center of each with olive oil.

  3. Place a salmon fillet in the center of each foil sheet.

  4. Drizzle each fillet with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

  5. Top each fillet with 2-3 lemon slices, minced garlic, and a sprinkle of dill and parsley.

  6. Fold the sides of the foil over the salmon, then fold the top and bottom to create a sealed packet.

  7. Place the foil packets on the preheated grill and close the lid.

  8. Grill for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

  9. Carefully remove the packets from the grill and let them rest for 2 minutes.

  10. Open the packets (be cautious of hot steam) and transfer the salmon to serving plates.

  11. Garnish with additional fresh herbs and lemon wedges if desired.

Chefnotizen

  • For a crispier top, open the foil packets for the last 2-3 minutes of grilling.
  • You can prepare the foil packets up to 4 hours in advance and refrigerate until ready to grill.
  • If you don't have fresh herbs, use 1 teaspoon each of dried dill and parsley instead.
  • This recipe also works well in the oven at 400°F for 15-18 minutes.
  • For a flavor variation, try adding thinly sliced red onions or cherry tomatoes to the packets.
