This is a quick and easy dinner. Pop the packets into the oven while you set the table and in 15-minutes you have a nutritious dish with virtually no clean up. Serve this with a rice or couscous dish and extra lemon on the side. This recipe was found at another web site.

Great recipe. Easy, fast and oh so delicious. Don't bother with the asparagus. Be sure to try the dill sauce Lemon Dill Sauce. Thanks

    This was easy and tasted really nice. Mine took a little longer to cook through than the time stated, but it was also very cold to start. The asparagus needed something extra - they were a little bland. Thank you!

    The only way that we will eat salmon fillets, although mum drizzles olive oil over as well as lemon juice before baking it. it really adds to its flavour. thanks for posting. MISs Pixie x x x :D

    A perfect recipe! I knew I'd love this when I saw it, salmon and asparagus are two of my favourite foods and it is so easy to make, yet looks elegant enough for a dinner party. I used a little of a garlic and chili seasoning salt and after 18 minutes I had a beautiful looking and tastebud-tentalising dinner. Thanks for sharing!
