Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your grill or oven to 375°F (190°C).

- Drizzle the butter mixture over the salmon fillets.
- Top each fillet with lemon slices.

Notes
For extra flavor, consider marinating the salmon fillets in the butter mixture for about 30 minutes before cooking. You can add vegetables like asparagus, zucchini, or bell peppers to the foil packs for a complete meal. Make sure the foil packs are sealed tightly to keep all the juices inside for moist salmon.
