My husband came up with this easy, foil-packet recipe for flaky, fork-tender salmon. This recipe is a winner.
Ingredients
2 salmon fillets (5 ounces each)
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1 tablespoon minced fresh basil
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
lemon wedges, optional
Directions
Prepare campfire or grill for medium heat. Place each fillet skin side down on a piece of heavy-duty foil (about 12 in. square). Mix melted butter, basil, lemon juice, salt and pepper; spoon over salmon. Fold foil around fish, sealing tightly.
Cook on campfire or in covered grill until fish just begins to flake easily with a fork, 10-15 minutes. Open foil carefully to allow steam to escape. If desired, serve with lemon wedges.
