Time 15m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 boneless salmon fillet (approximately 1/2 lb)
1/4 cup leek, sliced thinly
1 carrot, julienned
1 tablespoon cilantro chutney (coriander chutney) or 1 tablespoon pureed fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon ghee or 1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon lemon juice
fresh ground black pepper
1 pinch salt
parchment paper (One 15x20 inch piece)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F.
  • One side of the parchment paper, place 1/2 the butter.
  • On top of the butter, arrange sliced leeks and julienned carrots.
  • Spread chutney or cilantro puree on salmon and place the salmon fillet on top of the vegetables. Place the remaining butter on top. Sprinkle with fresh ground pepper and no more than a pinch of salt.
  • Fold the other side of the parchment paper over the salmon. Roll and crimp edges together to create a tightly-sealed half-moon shaped packet. Place packet on baking sheet and bake for 15-25 minutes (depending on thickness of fillet). Remove from oven and allow to sit for 3-5 minutes.
  • To serve, place the packet on a dinner plate and create two slashes on the top of the paper in the shape of an X.
  • Peel back paper and enjoy!

The salmon was a bit overcooked for my taste, but the cilantro butter sauce was amazing. I'll try cooking the salmon for a shorter time next time.
