Description

Grilled salmon in foil doesn't take long when made with brown sugar and lemon pepper. A quick-and-easy meal is great for entertaining or busy nights.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups brown sugar
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
2 (1 pound) fillets salmon fillets, cut in half
aluminum foil
1/2 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon liquid smoke, or more to taste

Directions

1 Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
2 Mix brown sugar, sea salt, lemon-pepper seasoning, and seasoned salt together in a container. Coat halved salmon fillets with seasoning mixture. Place salmon on 2 to 4 aluminum foil sheets; drizzle with olive oil and liquid smoke. Fold the tops of pieces of foil together, leaving the sides open. Tent the foil for heat circulation.
3 Place foil packets on the preheated grill and cook until salmon is easily flaked with a fork, 15 to 25 minutes, opening foil during the last 5 minutes to lightly brown.
