Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
  2. If using frozen fish, thaw completely and pat dry with paper towels.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, plain yogurt, and 1/2 teaspoon snipped fresh tarragon to create the sauce. Set aside.
  4. Trim woody ends from asparagus and cut into 4-inch pieces.
  5. Tear off four 24x18-inch pieces of heavy-duty aluminum foil.
  6. Fold each piece of foil in half crosswise to create a crease down the center, then unfold.
  7. Place one fish fillet on the center of each foil square.
  8. Top each fillet with a portion of the asparagus pieces, a slice of lemon, and a sprinkle of sliced green onions.
  9. Spoon a tablespoon of the tarragon sauce over each fish fillet.
  10. Place a fresh tarragon sprig on top of each fillet if desired.
  11. Bring up the sides of the foil and fold over the fish, crimping the edges tightly to seal the packets completely.
  12. Place packets on the grill grate and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
  13. Carefully open packets, releasing steam, and serve immediately.
