  • 4 teaspoons chopped fresh dill or 2 teaspoons dried dillweed

  2. Cut salmon fillet crosswise into 1/2-inch-wide strips. Overlap half of salmon strips on half of each foil piece. Sprinkle bay scallops over. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with sliced green onion and chopped dill, then drizzle with lemon juice and dot with butter. Fold second half of foil over fish. Fold in foil edges and pinch tightly to seal.
