Ingredients
  • 1 (2-pound) salmon filet
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 8 cloves garlic, chopped
  • ¼ cup white wine
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • ¼ cup green onions, sliced
  • ¼ cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • Lemon wedges, for serving
Instructions
  1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat, or preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a large baking dish with a large sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Place salmon filet in the center and set aside.
  2. In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes, until bubbly and fragrant. Remove from heat and stir in wine and lemon juice.
  3. Pour entire butter-mixture over the salmon, ensuring the filet is evenly coated. Season salmon with a few pinches of salt and pepper.
  4. Fold together the edges of aluminum foil, making sure the salmon is completely enclosed.
  5. To cook in the oven, bake for approx. 15 minutes. Carefully open the foil packet so the top of the filet is completely exposed. Change oven-setting to "broil," and return to oven for an additional 3-5 minutes. (Be careful not to let the garlic burn!)
  6. To cook on the grill, Carefully transfer the packet of salmon to the grill, and grill for 12-14 minutes. (Salmon will be ALMOST cooked through). Carefully open and pull back the aluminum foil so that the top of the fish is completely exposed. Continue cooking for 3-4 minutes, or until the top of the salmon and the garlic are slightly golden and the fish is cooked through.
  7. Top with green onions and parsley, and garnish with fresh lemon wedges.
