Basil & Lemon Baked Salmon in Foil

Ingredients

• 1 ½ lbs salmon cut into 6 fillets
• 6 Tbsp butter melted
• 1 clove garlic crushed
• 1 handful basil finely chopped
• 2 Tbsp lemon juice
• 1 tsp salt
• ½ tsp pepper
• 6 lemon slices

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2. Place a large sheet of aluminum foil on a baking sheet and spray with non-stick cooking spray. Lay salmon fillets on aluminum foil, evenly spaced.
3. In a medium-sized bowl combine butter, garlic, basil, juice, salt and pepper. Mix with a spoon until combined.
4. Pour half of the lemon-basil sauce over salmon fillets. Reserve the remaining sauce for later. Top each fillet with one lemon slice.
5. Close aluminum foil around salmon to make a packet. Bake salmon for 15 minutes without undoing the foil packet.
6. Open the foil packet, pour remaining lemon-basil sauce over fillets and return salmon to oven under a High broil for 5-7 minutes.
7. Watch salmon closely while broiling. Once salmon starts to brown slightly, remove from oven and serve immediately.
