Salt flakes and freshly ground black pepper
Large sheets of grill tin foil 2

Wash and thinly slice the lemons. Lay them on the salmon in an overlapping pattern. Strew over the capers and drizzle a little oil on the top.
Fold up the foil to make a well-sealed package. Place on the grill and bake for about 15-20 minutes, depending on thickness, until the salmon is thoroughly cooked but not dry. Open carefully after 15 minutes and make a small cut in the thickest part to see whether the fish is ready.
Serve with potato salad.
