Salmon and Broccoli Foil Pack
Summer calls for grillin' and chillin on the patio! This Salmon and Broccoli Foil Pack was the perfect easy weekday dinner! The juicy lemony flavor that comes through on the broccoli, and that delicious garlicky salmon?! It was scrumptious! This was fun to make and after it was done, we all got to sit out on the deck together and enjoy each other's company! This dish was also nice and light!
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 ½ lbs Salmon
- 1 lb Broccoli crowns cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 Lemons thinly sliced
- 2 Garlic cloves minced
- 3 tbsp Olive oil divided
- 1 ½ tbsp Dill minced
- 1 ½ tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Lemon zest
- 1 tsp Parsley minced
- ½ tsp Black pepper
Instructions
To prep the salmon and broccoli foil pack:
- Grab a large piece of aluminum foil and stretch it out on your baking sheet. Make sure the piece will be long enough to wrap around the salmon and broccoli! You can always grab another piece if you need to.
- Drizzle 1 tbsp olive oil onto the foil and lay out your salmon fillets. Let it sit at room temperature while you prep all the other ingredients.
- Sprinkle the broccoli around the salmon and drizzle the rest of the oil over everything.
- Sprinkle the seasonings all around and use your hands to toss and coat the broccoli.
- Sprinkle the garlic, dill, and parsley all everywhere, reserving some for garnish.
- Dust everything with lemon zest and top with lemon.
To grill:
- Wrap the foil around the salmon and broccoli and create a little pouch by pinching it together on both sides.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high for 5 minutes.
- Next, carefully lower the foil pack onto the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes depending on the thickness of your salmon. I had two fillets that were about 1 inch thick. If they are thicker than this, expect 15-18 minutes of grilling time. Make sure to peek at your foil pack after about 10 minutes to avoid overcooking.
- Remove from the grill and garnish with remaining herbs! Enjoy!
