SALMON AND TOMATOES IN FOIL



Salmon and Tomatoes in Foil image

Here is a simple recipe for salmon prepared en papillote (a fancy name for "in paper," though like most everyone else these days, you will use aluminum foil). Layer salmon, tomato and basil on lightly oiled foil and wrap it all up - you can even do it a night before cooking. When the time for dinner comes, you can steam, grill, roast or pan-grill the packages - though our testing shows roasting is easiest. You can substitute almost anything comparable for each of the ingredients: salmon can be replaced by any fish steak or fillet, or by boneless, skinless chicken breast. The herb and vegetable can also be varied at will, as long as the vegetable will finish cooking at the same time as the protein: if you were cooking broccoli, for example, you would have to cut it into small pieces; if carrots, you'd have to parboil them.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 to 2 pounds salmon fillet, cut crosswise (4 pieces)
12 cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
Salt and pepper
16 basil leaves

Steps:

  • For each of 4 packages, place one 12-inch-long sheet of aluminum foil on top of another. Smear top sheet with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil, and layer a fillet of salmon, 6 tomato halves, salt and pepper, 4 basil leaves and another half tablespoon oil. Seal package by folding foil onto itself and crimping edges tightly. Repeat to make other packages, and refrigerate until ready to cook, no more than 24 hours later.
  • When you are ready to cook, heat oven to 500 degrees. Place packages in a roasting pan. (Or they can be cooked on top of the stove in 2 skillets over medium-high heat.) Cook 5 minutes (for medium-rare) to 8 minutes from the time the mixture starts to sizzle, or roughly 10 to 12 minutes total.
  • Let packages rest a minute, and cut a slit along the top with a knife. Use a knife and fork to open the package. Spoon the salmon, garnish and juices onto a plate, and serve.

1.5 lbs Salmon ((cut into 4 6-oz fillets))
1/2 lb Asparagus ((trimmed, then cut in half))
10 oz Grape tomatoes
10 oz Zucchini ((sliced into half moons))
1/4 cup Olive oil
1/2 tsp Sea salt ((+ more for sprinkling))
1/4 tsp Black pepper ((+ more for sprinkling))
1/2 medium Lemon ((juiced and zested; about 1 tbsp juice and 1/2 tbsp zest))
2 cloves Garlic ((minced))
1 tbsp Fresh parsley ((chopped))
1 tbsp Fresh dill ((chopped))

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C), or preheat the grill to medium.

  • Bake for about 15-20 minutes, or grill (covered) for 13-18 minutes, until the salmon flakes easily with a fork or is done to your liking.

Categories     Entree

Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound fresh or frozen skinless salmon, cod, or flounder fillets, about 3/4 inch thick
2 cups thinly sliced fresh carrots
2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
1/4 cup sliced green onions
1 tablespoon snipped fresh oregano or 1 teaspoon dried oregano, crushed
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
2 teaspoons finely shredded orange peel
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
4 teaspoons olive oil
2 medium oranges, thinly sliced
4 sprigs fresh oregano (optional)

Steps:

  • Thaw fish, if frozen. Rinse fish; pat dry with paper towels. Cut into four serving-size pieces, if necessary. Set aside. In a small saucepan cook carrots, covered, in a small amount of boiling water for 2 minutes. Drain and set aside. Tear off four 24-inch pieces of 18-inch-wide heavy foil. Fold each in half to make four 18x12-inch pieces.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl combine carrots, mushrooms, green onion, the 1 tablespoon oregano, garlic, orange peel, half of the salt, and half of the pepper; toss gently.
  • Divide vegetables among the four pieces of foil, placing vegetables in center of each piece. Place one piece of salmon on top of each portion of vegetables. Drizzle 1 teaspoon of the oil over each piece of salmon. Sprinkle each with remaining salt and pepper; top with orange slices and, if desired, a sprig of oregano. Bring together two opposite edges of foil and seal with a double fold. Fold remaining ends to completely enclose the food, allowing space for steam to build. Place the foil packets in a single layer on a baking pan.
  • Bake for 30 minutes or until carrots are tender and fish begins to flake when tested with a fork. Open packets carefully to allow steam to escape. Transfer the packets to individual plates.

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

½ cup olive oil
2 ½ tablespoons fresh lemon juice, or more to taste
5 cloves cloves garlic, minced or pressed through a garlic press
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 (3 pound) salmon fillet
¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
1 lemon, sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Combine 1/2 cup olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, brown sugar, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
  • Place a large piece of aluminum foil on a baking sheet and brush with olive oil. Place salmon in the middle of the foil, skin-side down. Drizzle with olive oil mixture. Fold up the edges of the foil over the salmon to create a packet, making sure to seal the edges.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. Some good options include broccoli, carrots, zucchini, and bell peppers.
  • Season the salmon and vegetables well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika to season the salmon and vegetables. You can also add other herbs and spices to taste.
  • Wrap the salmon and vegetables tightly in foil: This will help to keep the moisture in and prevent the salmon from drying out.
  • Bake the salmon and vegetables at a high temperature: This will help to cook the salmon quickly and evenly. The internal temperature of the salmon should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit.

Conclusion:

This recipe for salmon and vegetables in foil is a healthy and delicious way to cook salmon. The salmon is cooked perfectly and the vegetables are tender and flavorful. This recipe is also very easy to make and it's a great option for a weeknight meal.
