Serves: 4
Ingredients
  • 4 center cut salmon fillets (1¼ to 11/2 pounds)
  • 1 pound cherry or grape tomatoes
  • 4 each: large garlic cloves and scallions, sliced thin
  • ½ cup sliced pimento-stuffed olives
  • ¼ cup each: extra-virgin olive oil and dry sherry
  • ¼ cup chopped fresh basil
  • 1 jalapeno, stemmed, seeded and minced
  • Salt and ground black pepper
Instructions
  1. Heat a gas grill, igniting all burners on high for at least 10 minutes.
  2. Mix all ingredients, including a generous sprinkling of salt and pepper in a large bowl. Divide mixture among four 12-by 18-inch sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Bringing long sides together, fold foil over about ½-inch; crimp to seal. Repeat folding and crimping twice more. Fold ends in twice to seal completely. .
  3. Set packets on hot rack; cover and grill for 8 minutes. Remove from grill; let stand 3 minutes. Serve.
Notes
If you don’t have a gas grill or don't feel like firing it up, just adjust the rack to lowest position and roast the foil packs on a rimmed baking sheet in a 500-degree oven for 15 minutes, letting them stand 3 minutes before opening them.
