For a deeper flavor, try caramelizing the onion rings slightly before placing them on the salmon. Sauté them in a pan with a little olive oil over medium heat until softened and golden brown. Add a squeeze of lemon juice or a drizzle of balsamic glaze after grilling for extra brightness and flavor. If you don't have an outdoor grill, you can bake the salmon in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes. Ensure the internal temperature of the salmon reaches 145°F (63°C) for safe consumption.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
5 mins
Preheat an outdoor grill to medium heat (about 350-400°F or 175-200°C). Lightly oil the grill grate to prevent sticking. (5 minutes)
02
Step
5 mins
Place the salmon on a large sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Arrange the onion rings evenly over the top of the salmon fillet. Season generously with freshly ground black pepper. (5 minutes)
03
Step
2 mins
Wrap the foil loosely around the salmon, leaving a small opening at the top to allow steam to escape. This helps the salmon cook evenly and prevents it from becoming soggy. (2 minutes)
04
Step
15 mins
Carefully place the foil-wrapped salmon onto the preheated grill. Cover the grill and cook for approximately 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the fillet. (15 minutes)
05
Step
2 mins
Carefully remove the foil packet from the grill. Open the foil, being cautious of escaping steam. Let the salmon rest for a few minutes before serving. (2 minutes)
