4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets (skin removed)
1 pound asparagus, trimmed 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted 4 garlic cloves, minced 2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 teaspoon lemon zest
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
For garnish, fresh parsley, chopped

Salmon is high in protein and omega-3 fatty acids, whereas asparagus is high in vitamins and minerals. The lemon garlic butter sauce gives a tangy and flavorful accent that pairs wonderfully with the fish and asparagus.

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).
Cut four 12 inch long strips of aluminum foil.
Melted butter, minced garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
Each sheet of foil should include one salmon fillet in the center.
Brush the butter mixture generously over each salmon fillet.
Distribute the asparagus evenly among the four foil packages, wrapping it over the salmon fillets.
Drizzle the asparagus with the remaining butter mixture.
Fold the foil sides up over the salmon and asparagus to form a package, leaving a small opening for steam to escape.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
Open the foil packs carefully and garnish the salmon with chopped parsley.
