Ingredients:
Salmon Fillet(s)
Olive oil
Lemon pepper
Crushed black pepper
Lemon slices
Prep:
Baste the fillet in a small amount of olive oil being sure to coat the entire surface (not the skin side if you leave skin on).
Sprinkle Lemon pepper on to your taste. Add black pepper if it needs more kick. Add lemon slices if you see fit.
Wrap in foil being sure to seal the edges completely.
If you do two fillets try to match them in size and lay them on one another so that the skin side is out.
Grill Salmon until done (yeah... I don't time things) and will flake easily with a fork. You may also cook this atop coals.
Devour!
*Optional additions
Wash and trim asparagus to lay atop the lemon slices and/or in between the fillets.
Pepper slices are also a good addition.

Salmon Asparagus Pasta Salad
1 lb. of pasta (I use bowties - large or small - called Farfalle, I think)
1 bunch of asparagus (the thinner the spears, the better)
1 fillet of Salmon - around a pound
dressing:
3 T mayonnaise
1/2 C sour cream
3 T lemon juice
1 1/2 T Dijon mustard
1/2 t dried dill
optional:
ground black pepper
green onions
1. Cook the pasta until at dente, rinse, and drain well. While the pasta is cooking, microwave or steam the asparagus for 3 minutes and either grill or broil the salmon. (My hints: I cut the asparagus up into bite sized pieces, put it in a microwave safe container with a couple tablespoons of water, put on a lid and vent the corner and microwave for 3 minutes. The Salmon, I put into a tin-foil "box" that I make by folding up the edges of the foil. I put a couple pats of butter, some garlic salt, & some onion powder on top and then grill outside so my house doesn't smell like fish. When it's done, I flake it with a fork.)
2. Combine the cooked pasta, asparagus, salmon flakes and green onions if desired, in a large serving bowl; toss to mix.
3. Combine dressing ingredients in a small bowl and stir until smooth. Pour over the pasta salad and toss. Add back pepper to taste.
4. Serve right away, or it may be chilled and served cold as well. (I like it warm better, but it's yummy both ways!)
