Grilled Salmon with Baked Sweet Potatoes

Yes please. 


Here's how I put it together: 

Preheat oven to 400
Go fire your grill up
Slice 2-3 sweet potatoes fairly thin
Spread out on cookie sheet
Drizzle olive oil (enough to coat) and sprinkle some salt & pepper on top
We normally cook the potatoes for about 10-15 minutes
Rip out foil that makes it into a square (you'll need as many of these as you have salmon fillets)
Stir in about 1/4C olive oil with the juice of 1/2 a lemon, salt and pepper
Fold up the sides of the tinfoil like you're making a tray for each individual fillets to sit in
Place tinfoil on medium heat and put your meat on
Brush the oil/lemon mixture directly on your salmon
Leave heat on medium for 10 minutes
Turn the foils to the right 180 and baste with lemon oil mixture
Slice the other 1/2 of the lemon and add a few slices on top of salmon
Another 10 minutes and the salmon should be done
My mom told me that if you take a fork to the salmon and it peels apart easily, then it's done (thanks mom!)
