**One minor alteration...I used far less extra virgin olive oil to cut down on the fat. You may choose to use more if desired. From the Food Network

Ingredients

    • 4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets
    • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
    • 1/2 teaspoon salt
    • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    • 1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary leaves
    • 8 lemon slices (about 2 lemons)
    • 1/4 cup lemon juice (about 1 lemon)
    • 1/2 cup Marsala wine (or white wine)
    • 4 teaspoons capers

    • 4 pieces of aluminum foil

Directions

Brush top and bottom of salmon fillets with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and rosemary. Place each piece of seasoned salmon on a piece of foil large enough to fold over and seal. Top the each piece of salmon with 2 lemon slices, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, 2 tablespoons of wine, and 1 teaspoon of capers. Wrap up salmon tightly in the foil packets.

Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill. Place the foil packets on the hot grill and cook for 10 minutes for a 1-inch thick piece of salmon. Serve in the foil packets.

If you do not have the convenience of a grill, then preheat your oven to 450 degrees and roast the salmon fillets for 8-10 minutes. Turn the heat off and let the fillets sit for another few minutes before removing.
