4 boneless skineless salmon fillets
1 pound asparagus, ends trimmed
1 lemon, thinly sliced, (plus additional wedges for garnish)
1/2 cup butter, at room temperature
3 teaspoons Italian seasoning
3 teaspoons garlic, minced
fresh thyme or parsley, for garnish
salt and pepper, to taste
Directions
- Season salmon generously with salt and pepper on both sides. Arrange one salmon fillet and 1/4 of the asparagus in the center of one 12×12 inch piece of foil. Repeat with remaining salmon and asparagus on 3 other pieces of foil. Slide lemon slices under the salmon and asparagus.
- In a small bowl mix butter, Italian seasoning, and garlic. Drop large dollops of the herb butter on top of the salmon and asparagus.
- Fold the foil tightly around the salmon and asparagus. Grill over medium high heat for 6-8 minutes on each side, or bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes, until asparagus is tender and salmon is flaky.
- Drizzle fresh lemon juice over the top and serve immediately.
