Ingredients
  • 1 2lb salmon filet
  • salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 2 cloves garlic, grated
  • ½ medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • ½ lemon, thinly sliced and any lingering seeds removed
  • 1 recipe homemade mayonnaise or about ½ jar store-bought if that's your thing
  • parchment paper
  • foil
Preparation Instructions
  1. Ok first get your grill fairly hot. I have gas so I just put it on high. If you are using charcoal, get those coals nice and red and then go prepare the fish.
  2. Grab a sheet of foil and a baking sheet, lay it down on the baking sheet and then cover it with parchment. Place the fish on the parchment.
  3. Take your garlic and rub it all over the filet.
  4. Sprinkle the salt and pepper all over.
  5. Sprinkle the onion slices all over and then do the same with the lemon slices.
  6. Now this is the only tricky part to the whole thing. You have to carefully spread that mayo all over the top of everything. I just sort of hold everything down with one hand and spread with the other.
  7. Once you've done all that, grab the whole thing and head out to the grill. Carefully lift the foil, parchment and fish off the baking sheet and place it on the grill.
  8. Close the lid and let it cook until the salmon easily flakes with a fork, about 10-15 minutes.
  9. Carefully lift the foil and fish onto that baking sheet and serve.
