Baked Salmon in Foil with Asparagus and Garlic Lemon Butter Sauce

Ingredients:

• 4 skinless salmon fillets
• 1 pound (454 grams) asparagus tips
• 1/3 cup (75 grams) melted butter
• 1/3 cup (125 ml) lemon juice
• 4 minced garlic cloves
• 2 teaspoons (10 ml) chopped fresh parsley
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 2/3 cup (65 grams) grated fresh Parmesan cheese
• Parsley and lemon wedges for garnish

Preparation:

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Arrange the salmon fillets in the center of separate 12”x18” (30×45 cm) sheets of aluminum foil. Distribute the asparagus tips evenly around each salmon fillet.
3. In a bowl, mix together the melted butter, lemon juice, minced garlic, and chopped parsley. Drizzle this mixture over the salmon and asparagus. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then sprinkle each portion with 2 to 3 tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese.
4. Fold the aluminum foil over the salmon and asparagus, sealing the edges tightly to create foil packets.
5. Place the foil packets on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
6. Carefully open the foil packets and garnish with additional parsley and lemon wedges before serving.

Enjoy your delicious and flavorful baked salmon!
