We don't get much fresh seafood around here. So when I see some whole salmon in the grocery store, I snap it up and make this elegant entree.

SALMON BAKED IN FOIL

Another winner from Giada and Everyday Italian. I recently got hooked on the whole foil cooking method for fish and have been scouring the internet to add more of these to my arsenal of delicious, moist and super tasty fish recipes. Here's a true winner! Super healthy, super moist, super delicious. We love it. Even my 2 and 4 year old. I HIGHLY recommend you use fresh tomatoes in this recipe rather than the optional canned. MUCH better flavor. NOTE: I USE THIN FILLETS AND WOULD ONLY COOK ABOUT 15 MINUTES IF USING THIN FILLETS.

Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

½ cup olive oil
2 ½ tablespoons fresh lemon juice, or more to taste
5 cloves cloves garlic, minced or pressed through a garlic press
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon dried thyme
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
aluminum foil
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 (3 pound) salmon fillet
¼ cup chopped fresh parsley
1 lemon, sliced

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.
