Sizzling Salmon

First, we want to say that we are thrilled at the response we have received on our blog! Healthy food and a healthy lifestyle is something we are passionate about and want to share it with all of you!

Tonight's meal takes a tad more preparation but really packs a nutritious punch.

Recipe:

1 lb. Alaskan Salmon (Wild preferably)

1 pkg. Garden Vegetable (or any mixed veggie package)

Lemon Pepper Seasoning

Cavanders Seasoning

Olive oil cooking spray

Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Foil

First tear a large piece of foil and fold it in half, raise all edges to make two separate foil boats, one for your salmon and one for veggies.(see photo) Put salmon in the foil boat, skin side down and brush top with 1 Tbsp. olive oil then season it with the Lemon Pepper seasoning and flip salmon over so the skin is facing up. Brush the skin side with a small amount of olive oil as well. In your second foil boat add vegetables, spray lightly with cooking spray (preferably olive oil cooking spray) and add Cavanders seasoning and mix so all veggies are covered. Add about 3 cubes of ice. Tear off another piece of foil and make a sealed lid over vegetable boat. Your product thus far should look like the picture below:

Now it's grill time! Turn your grill to high. Place both boats on grill, cook salmon for about 5 minutes then flip it so the skin is directly on the grill and remove the foil. Cook on this side for 5 more minutes. Remove both boats from grill, use a spatula to take off skin, it should come off extremely easy. (see photo)

...and VOILA! Time to eat!
