Ingredients

4 salmon fillets (6 ounces each)
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 green onions, white and green portions separated and sliced
1/4 cup marinated quartered artichoke hearts
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/3 cup garlic-herb spreadable cheese (about half of a 6.5-oz. package)

Steps:

Place fillets on a large piece of heavy-duty foil (about 18x12 in.), skin side down. Sprinkle with lemon zest, salt and pepper; top with white portion of green onions. Fold foil around fish, sealing tightly. Grill, covered, over medium-high heat until fish just begins to flake easily with a fork, 7-9 minutes., Meanwhile, place artichoke hearts, lemon juice and cheese in a food processor; process until smooth. To serve, open foil carefully to allow steam to escape. Remove salmon to serving plates, leaving skin on foil. Top fillets with artichoke mixture; sprinkle with remaining green onion.
