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
8 spears fresh asparagus, cut into 1-1/2 inch pieces
4 teaspoons olive oil

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 (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.

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 (6- to 8-ounce) skin-on salmon fillets
Cut vegetables, fresh herbs and/or slices of lemon, lime or orange
Salt and pepper

  • 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.

Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

16 to 20 kalamata olives, pitted and roughly chopped
2 tablespoons capers, drained
1 medium shallot (about 2 ounces), thinly sliced
3 ounces red bell pepper (about 1/2 large pepper), thinly sliced
1 3/4 ounces leek (white and tender green parts only from about 1/4 large leek), thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
3 tablespoons olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Two 6-ounce salmon fillets
2 tablespoons anise-flavored liqueur (such as sambuca, pastis or Pernod) or white wine
2 fresh bay leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Cut two 15-by-24-inch pieces of parchment. Fold each in half crosswise like a book, then cut each into a heart shape. Open the hearts and place on a rimmed baking sheet.
  • In a medium bowl, stir to combine the olives, capers, shallot, bell pepper, leeks and garlic. Add the vinegar and 1 tablespoon of the olive oil; stir to coat. Season lightly with salt and pepper--the capers and olives add their own saltiness to the mixture.
  • Season both sides of each salmon fillet with salt and pepper. Place 1 fillet near the fold of each parchment heart. Drizzle each fillet with 1 tablespoon each olive oil and sambuca. Place 1 bay leaf on each fillet then top evenly with the olive mixture.
  • Fold the halves of each heart together, crimping along the edge from top to bottom. When you reach the pointed end, twist it to shut each packet.
  • Bake the packets on the baking sheet until they are slightly puffed and the salmon is cooked, 13 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven, place on plates and carefully cut open the packets at the table.

SALMON EN PAPILLOTE (ASIAN TWIST)



Salmon En Papillote (Asian Twist) image

I thought I'd give an Asian twist to this 'salmon en papillote' dish as I am sure there are plenty of variations out there. Feel free to experiment and play with this recipe by substituting spinach with fennel, rice wine with white wine, soy sauce with salt or anchovies, mushrooms with capsicum, etc. It all depends on your taste and the flavors you like.

Provided by TalesoftheKitchen

Categories     Spinach

Time 22m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (200 g) salmon fillets, skin on (can remove the skin if you do not like it)
1/2 bunch Baby Spinach (or normal English spinach)
2 -3 button mushrooms, sliced into 1/2cm pieces (normal mushroom)
1 -2 red chile, cut lengthwise (leave stem attached for easy discard at the end)
3 asparagus spears, thick ends removed (you can use more if you like asparagus like I do)
1 1/2 cm piece fresh ginger, peeled, grated
1 tablespoon shaoxing rice wine (but can substitute with sherry, sake, cooking wine)
1 tablespoon mirin
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 pinch black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 180°C.
  • Place the spinach on the baking paper. Add the chilies, 3/4 of the mushrooms and the asparagus and season with some pepper.
  • Place the salmon on top of asparagus and add the grated ginger and season with more pepper. Top the salmon with the rest of the mushrooms.
  • Fold the paper over to enclose the filling. Fold in the edge to seal, leaving a gap of approx 3cm.
  • Mix the wet ingredients into a 'dressing'. Adjust to taste.
  • Pour the 'dressing' inside the paper through the gap. Now you can fold in the rest of the paper. The dressing will help keep the salmon moist and will add flavor to the dish.
  • Place the fish on a large baking tray and bake for 12 minutes or until the salmon is just cooked. I prefer it medium done in the middle.
  • Serve with a side salad.

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

Vegetables
1/2 head cauliflower
1 stalk broccoli
1 carrot
12 green beans
4 teaspoons butter
8 sprigs thyme
Salt and pepper
Salmon
4 5-ounce salmon fillets
3 lemons
Salt and pepper
8 sprigs thyme

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.

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.

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tbsp light soy sauce
1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
thumb-sized piece of ginger , finely grated
1 garlic clove , finely grated
2 skinless salmon fillets (about 140g each)
1 courgette , ends trimmed and spiralized into thin noodles

Bring the sides of the parchment up over the salmon and pour half of the remaining marinade over each fillet then scrunch the paper tightly together to seal the fish in a parcel.
