Steps:
- Start by cutting off four 16-inch pieces of Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Aluminum Foil.
- Rinse clams and mussels in cold running water
- Place the Halibut (or fish of your choice) in the center of one piece of the foil. Coat both sides of the fish with olive and season with sea salt and black pepper
- Add the mussels and clams to the sides of the fish, placing the shrimp on top of the seafood and placing the garlic cloves in the shellfish.
- Bring up the long sides of the foil, so the ends meet over the food. Double fold the ends, leaving a little room for heat to circulate inside. Double fold the two short ends to seal the packet.
- Place the foil packet on top of an additional piece of foil and enclose the package. This will help prevent leaks into the grill and offer a little more protection from the heat.
- Preheat your grill to 350 degrees and place the packets on the grill grates. Close the lid and allow the packets to cook for 15 minutes. This will fully cook the fish and shrimp while steaming the clams and mussels open.
- Carefully remove the foil packets from the grill and cut them open. *The steam can burn you so take your time and be careful when opening the packets.
- Using a spatula place the fish in the center of a bowl (or plate) and place the clams, mussels, and shrimp around the fish. Pour the juice from the packet over the seafood and garnish with chopped parsley and crushed red pepper flakes.

Steps:
- Prepare a grill for medium heat. Whisk 1 Tbsp. honey, 1½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1 tsp. Morton kosher salt, and 1 tsp. finely grated lemon zest in a small bowl to combine. Add 6 garlic cloves, finely chopped, 4 Tbsp. unsalted butter, room temperature, and 2 Tbsp. finely chopped dill and whisk again to combine (some lemon zest may remain separate and that's okay).
- Tear off a large piece of foil according to the length and thickness of salmon (15x15" or larger) and place on a rimmed baking sheet. Place one 1 lb. boneless salmon fillet, preferably skin-on, arranging skin side down if skin is on, in center of foil (the skin will stick slightly to foil and brown while the fish cooks; you want this as it will add to the sauce). Spread garlic butter over fish, then drizzle 3 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice on top. Carefully fold one side of foil up and over fish so lemon juice stays contained, then bring other sides up to meet it and fold together to seal, leaving about a 4" opening on top for steam to escape (this will help sauce reduce a bit).
- Place foil packet on grate and grill fish until opaque throughout and firm, 16-20 minutes. Transfer packet to a cutting board and let fish rest 5 minutes.
- Carefully open foil packet and cut fish in half. Transfer to plates; pour juices from packet over. Drizzle fish with remaining 1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice, dividing evenly, and top with more finely chopped dill.
