Click for larger view
Foil wrapping your fish is an easy way to prepare it that keeps it moist and flavorful. It also makes clean up a breeze. Here we used avocado oil for its light, fresh, buttery taste. Avocado oil also has a high smoke point so it is great for cooking at high heat. This dish can be made in you oven but we like to do this outside on our gas grill. Look for wild caught salmon if you can find it, specifically Wild Alaskan King salmon.
