Ingredients:

• 1 pound (450g) salmon fillets, divided
• 2 tablespoons vegetable broth or chicken broth
• 1 1/2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, or to taste
• 1 tablespoon of your favorite hot sauce (we used Sriracha)
• 4 teaspoons minced garlic (4 cloves)
• Salt and fresh ground black pepper, to taste
• 3-4 tablespoons butter, diced into small cubes (or ghee)
•  2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley or cilantro
• 1 lb (450g) medium-thick asparagus, woody ends trimmed

Directions:

1. To prepare the grilled salmon in foil packs: Preheat your grill to 425ºF (220ºC). Cut 2 sheets of 14 by 12-inch (35 x 30 cm) heavy-duty aluminum foil, then lay each piece separately on the countertop. Combine broth, lemon juice, and hot sauce in a small bowl.

2. Season both sides of the salmon fillets with salt and pepper and divide the salmon onto the aluminum foil near the center, then place trimmed asparagus on one side of the salmon, following the long direction of the foil.

3. Adjust the salmon fillets’ seasoning with more salt and pepper, then sprinkle garlic on top. Drizzle the mixture of broth, lemon juice, and hot sauce generously over the salmon fillets and asparagus.

4. Divide butter pieces evenly among the foil packets, layering them over the salmon fillet and asparagus.

5. Wrap salmon foil packets in and crimp edges together, then wrap ends up. Don’t wrap too tight – keep a little extra space inside for heat to circulate.

6. Transfer the salmon foil packs to the grill and cook salmon sealed side upward, until salmon has cooked through, about 9 – 12 minutes.

7. Carefully unwrap the baked salmon in foil packets, drizzle with more lemon juice, garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro and a slice of lemon. Enjoy!
