Grillin' - Salmon Two Ways

The next time that aluminum foil goes on sale, I'm going to have to buy a case. I love using the foil on the grill for super easy grilling and even easier clean-up.

I started with two pieces of salmon and two very different appetites.  I was feeling like something sweet and my husband felt like anything BUT sweet.  So, here goes:

My piece:  a drizzle of lime juice and sweet chili sauce, a bit of salt and pepper.  Wrap it up.


His piece:  drizzle with olive oil, add lemon slices and smashed garlic, a pinch of dried red chillies, salt and pepper.  Wrap it up.


On the grill for 12 minutes, flipping over halfway.



Notice anything peculiar about the garlic on his piece?  LOL  Apparently, something in the aluminun foil reacts with the sulphur in the garlic and makes it a lovely shade of teal.  (WT,...???!!) It tastes fine and it won't hurt you, but wow,....weird.

This is the perfect recipe for entertaining.  I mean really, easy prep (you could include thin-sliced veggies if you like) and 12 minutes on the grill.  That's all there is to it.
