SALMON FILLET EN PAPILLOTE WITH JULIENNE VEGETABLE
Steps:
- Take a 15 by 36-inch piece of parchment paper and fold in 1/2 like a book. Draw a large 1/2 heart on paper with fold of paper being the center of the heart. Cut out heart and open. Lay fennel, leeks, carrots, and snow peas on parchment in center to 1 side of fold. Mix together salt, pepper, and ground coriander. Sprinkle vegetables with 1/2 of salt, pepper, and coriander. Lay salmon on top of vegetables and season with remaining salt, pepper and coriander. Top with the orange wedges and sprinkle with vermouth. Fold other side of heart over fish and starting at top of heart shape, fold up both edges of parchment, overlapping folds as you move along. Once you reach the end tip, twist several times to secure tightly. Place on microwave safe plate and cook for 4 minutes, on high in microwave, or until fish reaches 131 degrees. Open parchment carefully and serve for a complete meal.
SALMON EN PAPILLOTE (SALMON IN PARCHMENT)
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.

- Place in oven for 10 to 15 minutes, depending on how done you'd like to serve the salmon. The packages should puff up and make for dramatic serving.

SALMON AND VEGETABLES EN PAPILLOTE
Steps:
- To prepare the vegetables: Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Place 4 sheets of parchment paper on a work surface. Trim the cauliflower and broccoli florets from the stems, discarding the stems, and divide the florets among the parchment sheets.
- Peel the carrot and cut into 1/16-to 1/8-inch-thick round slices. Place some of the carrots on each parchment sheet. Cut the ends off the green beans and cut each bean into 3 or 4 pieces. Arrange some of the beans on each parchment sheet and top with 1 teaspoon of butter. Place 2 thyme sprigs and 1 teaspoon of water on each parchment sheet. Season with salt and pepper. Bring the sides of the parchment to the middle and fold over three times, about 1/2 inch each time. Fold the ends of the parchment and tuck them under the package to loosely enclose the vegetables. Place the vegetable packets on an ungreased baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the salmon: Lay 4 sheets of parchment paper on a work surface and place 1 salmon fillet in the center of each sheet. Cut 2 of the lemons in half, remove the seeds, and squeeze the juice from 1 lemon half on each salmon fillet. Season with salt and pepper and top each fillet with 2 thyme sprigs. Bring the sides of the parchment to the middle and fold over three times, about 1/2 inch each time. Fold the ends of the parchment and tuck them under the package, loosely enclosing the salmon. Add the salmon packets to the baking sheet and bake them for 10 minutes. (If your pieces of salmon are thicker than 3/4 inch, you will need to cook them up to 5 minutes longer.)
- Cut the remaining lemon into 8 wedges.
- Remove the salmon and vegetables from the parchment and arrange them on plates with the lemon wedges.
