Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Rinse salmon fillets in cold water
place onto a plate
and squeeze a lemon over the salmon. Sprinkle fillets with salt and black pepper.
Fold a piece of parchment paper in half crosswise
and center a salmon fillet on one side of the paper. Place 1 or 2 lemon slices on top of the salmon
and surround with 2 cut-up asparagus spears. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of green onion over the lemon slices
and fold the parchment paper over the salmon. Fold the edges of the paper over several times
all around the open edges
to seal the salmon into a parchment paper envelope. (Do not tape the parchment paper closed.) Place the sealed envelopes onto a baking sheet
and brush the tops of each packet with about 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
Bake in the preheated oven until the asparagus is tender and the salmon is opaque and slightly flaky
20 to 25 minutes. To serve
place a packet onto a plate
and cut open the paper to release the aroma.
