Best 4 Mediterranean Salmon En Papillote In A Paper Package Recipes

SALMON EN PAPILLOTE

Steps:

• For the salmon: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Bring a pot of water to a boil and season with salt.
• Put the canola oil in a pan set over medium-high heat. Season the fennel with salt and pepper. Once the oil is hot, add the fennel and cook on one side until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Set aside.
• Meanwhile, cook the potato slices in the boiling water for 3 minutes, then drain and set aside.
• Cut 4 pieces of parchment paper into large heart shapes, then fold in half. Lift one side of each parchment heart, put some fennel in the center of the bottom half of each, then shingle the potatoes on top and follow with a piece of salmon. Top each salmon piece with a quarter of the white wine, butter, tarragon and shallots. Season with salt and pepper.
• Begin to close the parchment pieces by crimping the edges in small folds, continuing to fold over part of the previous fold, until the packets are completely closed. Place the packets on a baking sheet and bake for 15 to 18 minutes, depending on your desired doneness.
• For the tapenade: While the salmon is in the oven, combine the olives, capers, anchovy and garlic in a bowl. Add the olive oil, lemon juice and honey and mix until combined. Finish with the minced parsley.
• Open the packets at the table and top each with a spoonful of the tapenade.

CARLY'S SALMON EN PAPILLOTE (IN PAPER)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• 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. Fold the edges of the paper over several times, all around the open edges, to seal the salmon into a parchment paper envelope. (Do not tape the parchment paper closed.) Place the sealed envelopes onto a baking sheet, and brush the tops of each packet with about 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the asparagus is tender and the salmon is opaque and slightly flaky, 20 to 25 minutes. To serve, place a packet onto a plate, and cut open the paper to release the aroma.

SALMON EN PAPILLOTE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Cut a large sheet of aluminum foil into four 8-inch square pieces. Place 1 salmon fillet on each piece of foil; season with salt and pepper. Drizzle olive oil and balsamic vinegar over fillets. Sprinkle dill fronds on top. Place 1 lemon slice over each fillet.
• Lift up ends of aluminum foil and fold together to create packets around salmon fillets. Transfer packets to a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until salmon flakes easily with a fork, about 20 minutes.
• Combine creme fraiche, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir until sauce is heated through, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Open foil packets carefully. Pour sauce over salmon.

MEDITERRANEAN CHICKEN EN PAPILLOTE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Prepare ingredients and line them up on the counter.
• Take four parchment paper squares and place two squares on each of two baking sheets.
• Starting with chicken, divide cubes among parchment sheets.
• Next, divide tomatoes among the squares, followed by chopped sun-dried tomatoes, pepper strips, sliced onion, chopped garlic, olives and crumbled feta.
• Season each mound with salt and pepper, then dribble a little white wine and olive oil over each mound. Sprinkle in herbs; top each with a lemon slice.
• To wrap packages: Pick up one corner of the parchment paper and fold over to meet opposing corner, line up the edges taking care to keep all ingredients inside the paper. Starting at one end, fold over the edges and crimp to make a fairly tight seal all the way around. Place package on baking sheet. Repeat with remaining parchment squares.
• Slide baking sheets into preheated oven and bake 25 minutes.
• While the packets are baking, make a side-dish such as plain steamed rice or quinoa.
• When packets are finished, slide each onto a plate, make a tiny tear in the centre of each package so a little steam can escape (be careful of the hot steam) and serve right away.
• Note: Recipe makes four servings, but ingredient amounts can easily be scaled up or down to make more or fewer servings.
