Recipe Directions
Step 1: Preheat Your Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
Step 2: Prepare the Salmon
Place each salmon fillet on a piece of foil large enough to fold over and seal. Season the salmon with salt and pepper, then top each fillet with lemon slices.
Step 3: Prepare the Asparagus
In a mixing bowl, toss the trimmed asparagus with olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Step 4: Assemble the Packets
Divide the seasoned asparagus among the foil packets, arranging them next to the salmon fillets.
Step 5: Make the Lemon Garlic Butter Sauce
In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, minced garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
Step 6: Seal the Packets
Drizzle each salmon fillet and asparagus with the lemon garlic butter sauce. Fold the foil over the salmon and asparagus to create sealed packets.
Step 7: Bake
Place the foil packets on the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the asparagus is tender.
Step 8: Serve and Enjoy
Carefully open the foil packets, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve immediately. Enjoy the tender salmon and flavorful asparagus drizzled with the luscious lemon garlic butter sauce!
