Salmon and Asparagus With Hollandaise Sauce image

This is a quick and easy dinner. Pop the foil packets in the oven while you make the sauce. Easy, great tasting hollandaise sauce. Can be whipped up while the salmon is cooking. This is an adaptation of many different recipes till I found the perfect dish to serve for dinner.

This recipe was a disaster. The salmon was overcooked and the asparagus was mushy. The hollandaise sauce was too thin and didn't have much flavor. I will not be making this recipe again.

This dish was a bit too fishy for my taste. The salmon was cooked well, but the asparagus was a bit overcooked. The hollandaise sauce was good, but it didn't really go with the salmon and asparagus.

I'm not a big fan of asparagus, but I loved this dish. The salmon was cooked perfectly and the hollandaise sauce was divine. I'll definitely be making this again, but I'll probably skip the asparagus next time.

This was a great recipe! I made it for my family and they loved it. The salmon was cooked perfectly and the asparagus was still slightly crunchy. The hollandaise sauce was a bit too rich for my taste, but overall the dish was very good.

I had some trouble getting the hollandaise sauce to emulsify, but other than that the dish turned out great. The salmon and asparagus were cooked perfectly and the sauce was delicious.

I'm not a big fan of fish, but I gave this recipe a try and I was pleasantly surprised. The salmon was mild and flaky, and the hollandaise sauce was rich and creamy. I'll definitely be making this again!
