If you’re looking for a fast, foolproof, and flavorful way to cook salmon, save this grilled salmon foil pack recipe. It’s so easy and the salmon is tender, moist, and perfectly cooked in just 10 minutes on the grill. I used my outdoor grill so I don’t have to heat up my house during these warm summer days, but you can bake the foil packets if you don’t have a grill.
How To Make Foil Packs
To make the foil packs, simply add a salmon fillet to a sheet of foil, nestle orange slices under it, and drizzle it with a mixture of orange juice, molasses, soy sauce, and olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and add any veggies around the perimeter that you’d like. Seal up the foil, throw it on the grill, and you are all set. I like the unexpected pairing of orange juice, molasses, and soy. The orange juice adds bright acidity and since salmon is bold-flavored fish, it stands up beautifully to the molasses and soy sauce. They provide such a lovely depth of flavor.
What Kind Of Vegetables Can I Use
I used sugar snap peas because I had them on hand. Or try zucchini, cherry tomatoes, potatoes, mushrooms, broccoli, asparagus, or your favorite vegetables. Cleanup is as easy as throwing away a sheet of foil in this naturally gluten-free recipe. No dinner dishes means more time for relaxing which is music to my ears.
