Here is another easy and delicious recipe for the BBQ. You are also getting in a serving of fish!
Ingredients:
- 1 bunch of fresh asparagus, trimmed
- 2 red bell pepper, sliced
- 2 small yellow zucchini (summer squash), sliced
- 60 mL (¼ cup) chopped fresh basil
- 30 mL (2 tbsp) chopped fresh parsley or chives
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 baby bok choy, cut in half lengthwise
- 15 mL (1 tbsp) Dijon mustard
- 10 mL (2 tsp) canola oil
- 15 mL (1 tbsp) chopped fresh thyme leaves
- 1 mL (¼ tsp) fresh ground pepper
- 4 salmon fillets, skinned (about 125 g/4 oz each)
Directions:
- Cut asparagus stalks in half crosswise and place in large bowl. Add red pepper, zucchini, basil, parsley and garlic. Toss together to combine.
- Lay out four large pieces of foil and divide bok choy among them. Top with asparagus mixture; set aside.
- In small bowl, whisk together mustard, oil, thyme and pepper. Add salmon and turn to coat evenly. Place one piece of salmon on top of the bok choy-asparagus mixture. Fold foil to seal or place another piece of foil on top to seal and form packets.
- Place packets on greased grill over medium heat and cook for about 10 minutes
Tips:
- Try this oven variation: Place packets on large baking sheet and bake in preheated 220°C (425°F) oven for about 15 minutes.
- Switch up your fish. Look for firm fleshed fish such as halibut, tilapia, trout or snapper to substitute for the salmon.
