Time 40m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (8 ounce) salmon fillet
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¼ cup chopped basil leaves
olive oil cooking spray
1 lemon, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Place an oven rack in the lowest position in oven and preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Place salmon fillet with skin side down in the middle of a large piece of parchment paper; season with salt and black pepper. Cut 2 3-inch slits into the fish with a sharp knife. Stuff chopped basil leaves into the slits. Spray fillet with cooking spray and arrange lemon slices on top.
  • Fold edges of parchment paper over the fish several times to seal into an airtight packet. Place sealed packet onto a baking sheet.
  • Bake fish on the bottom rack of oven until salmon flakes easily and meat is pink and opaque with an interior of slightly darker pink color, about 25 minutes. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the fillet should read at least 145 degrees F (65 degrees C). To serve, cut the parchment paper open and remove lemon slices before plating fish.

SALMON EN PAPILLOTE (SALMON IN PARCHMENT)



Salmon en Papillote (Salmon in Parchment) image

Salmon cooked en papillote, which means wrapped in a packet of parchment (or foil), is a dramatic way to procure perfectly cooked salmon, but it isn't difficult. Fold a fillet into a cut piece of parchment, and then layer it with seasonings or perhaps vegetables or citrus fruit. Then simply bake the packets until done. The steam created by the parchment produces reliably moist salmon, and opening the individual packets at the table makes for a fun way to start dinner.

4 (6- to 8-ounce) skin-on salmon fillets

Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 (4 ounce) salmon fillets
1 lemon, juice only
salt and ground black pepper to taste
4 12x18-inch pieces of parchment paper
1 lemon, thinly sliced
½ cup green onions, chopped

  • Rinse salmon fillets in cold water, place onto a plate, and squeeze a lemon over the salmon. Sprinkle fillets with salt and black pepper.
  • Fold a piece of parchment paper in half crosswise, and center a salmon fillet on one side of the paper. Place 1 or 2 lemon slices on top of the salmon, and surround with 2 cut-up asparagus spears. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of green onion over the lemon slices, and fold the parchment paper over the salmon.

CHEF JOHN'S SALMON IN PARCHMENT



Chef John's Salmon in Parchment image

Cooking fish in parchment paper is incredibly simple, and yet fairly terrifying for a novice cook. Since the seafood is encased in paper, there's really no good way to check if it's done. The good news: if you use a large, center-cut salmon filet, about 8 or 9 ounces, and cook it for 15 minutes at 400 degrees F, you're going to be very, very close.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     French

Time 55m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 teaspoon olive oil, or more if needed
6 small potatoes
10 spears asparagus
2 (8 ounce) skinless, boneless, center-cut salmon fillets
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Take two pieces of parchment paper, fold in half, and cut a half-circle starting at each crease. They should look similar to a heart-shape when unfolded. Coat each piece of parchment with olive oil on both sides.
  • Place potatoes in a saucepan and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain.
  • Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add asparagus, and cook uncovered until slightly tender, about 5 minutes. Drain in a colander, then immediately immerse in ice water for several minutes until cold to stop the cooking process. Once the asparagus is cold, drain well, and set aside.
  • Place 1 salmon fillet, half the asparagus, and half the potatoes in the middle of one side of a prepared parchment paper. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil. Fold other half of circle over and seal parchment edge by making overlapping folds around the edge. At the end, fold the last crease in the opposite direction of the rest to ensure it seals. Repeat with the second piece of prepared parchment and remaining ingredients. Place pouches on a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to sit for 5 minutes before cutting open parchment. The salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork.

Tips:

  • Select the freshest salmon fillet available. Look for a bright pink color and firm texture.
  • Pat the salmon fillet dry with paper towels before cooking. This will help the seasonings adhere to the fish and prevent the parchment paper from becoming soggy.
  • Season the salmon fillet generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or dried herbs.
  • Place the salmon fillet on a large sheet of parchment paper. Fold the parchment paper over the salmon fillet and seal the edges tightly to create a packet.
  • Bake the salmon fillet in a preheated oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through.
  • Let the salmon fillet rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the fish.

Conclusion:

Slow-roasted salmon in parchment paper is a simple and delicious way to cook salmon. This method results in a moist, flaky fish that is full of flavor. Parchment paper also makes cleanup a breeze. So next time you're looking for an easy and healthy weeknight meal, give this recipe a try.
