2 pieces of salmon

2 tablespoons stock (veggie or chicken)

1 ½ teaspoons fresh lemon squeeze
04 -
1 teaspoon spicy sauce (try Sriracha)

450 grams asparagus spears, tough ends cut off
# Directions:

Turn your oven on to 220°C (425°F) and let it warm up.

Grab heavy-duty aluminum foil and cut two pieces about 35x30-centimeters.
03 -
Combine stock, fresh lemon squeeze, and spicy sauce in a small bowl. Toss in garlic and butter chunks.
04 -
Dry the salmon with paper towels, add salt and pepper, then lay on foil. Put asparagus next to fish. Pour your sauce over everything.

Fold foil edges to make sealed packets, but don't wrap too tight. Pop them on a baking sheet and cook 9-12 minutes.

Open packets with care. Add more lemon juice if you want, sprinkle herbs on top, and dig in.
