Foil Wrapped Salmon Recipes

SALMON BAKED IN FOIL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Sprinkle salmon with 2 teaspoons olive oil, salt, and pepper. Stir the tomatoes, shallots, 2 tablespoons of oil, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, salt and pepper in a medium bowl to blend.
• Place a salmon fillet, oiled side down, atop a sheet of foil. Wrap the ends of the foil to form a spiral shape. Spoon the tomato mixture over the salmon. Fold the sides of the foil over the fish and tomato mixture, covering completely; seal the packets closed. Place the foil packet on a heavy large baking sheet. Repeat until all of the salmon have been individually wrapped in foil and placed on the baking sheet. Bake until the salmon is just cooked through, about 25 minutes. Using a large metal spatula, transfer the foil packets to plates and serve.

FOIL-WRAPPED SALMON AND VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Rinse fish; pat dry with paper towels. Cut fish into two serving-size pieces, set aside. In a small bowl, combine honey, garlic, lemon zest, lemon juice, dill and pepper; set aside.
• Tear off two 24 x 18 inch pieces of heavy foil. Place green beans in center of foil. Place fish on top of beans, drizzle with honey mixture. Bring together two opposite edges of foil; seal with double fold. Fold remaining ends to completely enclose food, allowing space for steam to build. Place foil packets on baking sheet.
• Bake for 30-40 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with fork. Carefully open packets to allow steam to escape. Transfer fish, beans and any honey mixture to dinner plates. Sprinkle with almonds.

BAKED SALMON IN FOIL

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.
• Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, 20 to 25 minutes. If your salmon fillet is very thick, it can take longer. Garnish with fresh parsley and lemon slices.

FOIL WRAPPED SIDE OF SALMON WITH LEMON AND ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Rinse salmon fillet under cold running water and pat dry. Cut a piece of foil long and wide enough to encase the salmon when folded over the center and folded up on the ends. Position the foil on a large baking sheet and place the salmon in the center of the foil, skin side down. Sprinkle the salmon with the salt, pepper, and rosemary. Place the lemon slices over the fish fillet along with the sliced onion and garlic slivers. Drizzle the fillet evenly with the olive oil and fold the edges of the foil up over the salmon and crimp to seal. Fold the edges together on both ends to create an airtight package.
• Bake the salmon for 15 minutes, or until just cooked through but still moist. Serve immediately, using a large metal spatula to portion fish. Serve some of the accumulated juices spooned over the fish.

GRILLED SALMON IN A FOIL PACK

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
• Toss the onion, lemon and garlic with a generous pinch each of salt and pepper. Spread the mixture in the center of a 24-inch-long piece of heavy-duty foil. Put the salmon on top of the onion mixture, drizzle with the butter and sprinkle with the Italian seasoning and a generous amount of salt and pepper. Bring the 2 long sides of foil together and fold over twice to seal. Bring the ends of the foil in and crimp to seal, leaving a bit of room for steam to circulate inside.
• Place the packet on the grill and cook for 10 to 15 minutes. Careful of the steam, open the packet and check the salmon. It should be mostly opaque with a slightly rosy center. Transfer the package to a cutting board and set aside for about 5 minutes.
• Cut the salmon into 4 equal pieces and transfer to 4 plates. Evenly spoon the onions, lemons and collected juices over the salmon.
