Baked Salmon in Foil with Asparagus

A simple and delicious one-pan meal featuring tender salmon and crisp asparagus, all baked together in foil for easy cleanup.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
  • 1 lb asparagus, trimmed
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp dried dill (or 1 tbsp fresh dill)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut 4 large pieces of foil (about 12×18 inches each).
  2. In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and dill.
  3. Divide asparagus evenly among the foil pieces. Place a salmon fillet on top of each asparagus bundle.
  4. Brush the salmon and asparagus with the olive oil mixture. Fold the foil over the salmon and crimp edges to seal.
  5. Place foil packets on a baking sheet. Bake for 15-18 minutes until salmon flakes easily with a fork.
  6. Carefully open packets (watch for steam) and serve immediately.

Notes

You can customize the seasonings to taste.
