Baked Salmon In A Foil Packet Food

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.

• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and cook onions until soft and browned, about 10 minutes. Season with marjoram and a little salt. Remove from heat.
• Place lemon slices in a single layer in a clean skillet over high heat and cook until lightly browned on both sides, about 3 minutes. Add star anise and water and bring to a boil. Remove from heat.
• Cover a baking pan large enough to hold the salmon with sheets of aluminum foil, leaving an overhang on all sides. Lay onions in a single layer on the bottom; place salmon fillet on top, skin-side down. Rub fillet with salt and pepper. Cover with lemon slices and star anise. Fold up the edges of the foil over the salmon to create a packet, making sure to seal the edges well.
• Bake in the preheated oven until salmon flakes easily with a fork, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from oven, open foil carefully, and serve.

SALMON BAKED IN FOIL

Steps:

• 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.

EASY SALMON AND POTATO FOIL PACKETS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F/200°C To a 12-inch long sheet of foil (I use Reynold's Heavy Duty Non-Stick), add half the potato slices in a pile in the center of foil. Slightly fan out the potatoes so air can circulate. Make sure potatoes are sliced very thin so they cook through in the same amount of time it takes the salmon to cook.
• Evenly drizzle the potatoes with about 1 tablespoon of olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and repeat process with another sheet of foil and the remaining potato slices.
• Top each pile of potatoes with 1 salmon filet.
• Evenly drizzle each salmon filet with about 1 tablespoon olive oil.
• Squeeze half the juice of the orange over one salmon filet and half the juice over the other filet.
• Squeeze half the juice of the lemon over one salmon filet and half the juice over the other filet.
• Season each salmon filet with salt and pepper.
• Seal foil packets, making sure to tightly crimp the seams so the olive oil and citrus juices don't leak. Place packets on baking sheet and bake for about 25 to 30 minutes. Carefully open one packet to check for doneness of both salmon and potatoes and if necessary, return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until done.

MEDITERRANEAN SALMON FOIL PACKETS

Steps:

• Prepare outdoor grill for covered direct grilling over medium-high heat.
• Trim ends from yellow squash and zucchini. With vegetable peeler, peel squash and zucchini lengthwise into long thin ribbons.
• Transfer ribbons to a foil cooking bag. (Or, place two 30" by 18" sheets heavy-duty foil on work surface to make a double thickness.).
• Sprinkle tomatoes, olives, basil, oil, and 1/2 teaspoon salt over squash and zucchini ribbons. Sprinkle lemon peel and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt over salmon.
• Place salmon on top of squash mixture; seal bag. (Or, if using foil, bring long sides of foil up and over salmon; fold several times to seal well, then fold in ends to seal tightly.).
• Place foil packet on grill rack. Cover grill and cook 12 minutes.
• When salmon is done, cut an X in top of foil packet to let steam escape, then carefully pull back foil to open.
• Slide vegetables and salmon onto 4 dinner plates to serve. Top with feta cheese as desired.

SALMON TERIYAKI BAKED IN FOIL PACKETS

Steps:

• In a stainless bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, ketchup, rice wine vinegar, sugar, garlic and 1 tbs of grated ginger. Place the salmon in a shallow nonmetallic dish. Pour the mixture over the salmon, toss well and marinate for about 30 minutes while you prepare the leeks.
• Place a large stainless saute pan over high heat. Add the olive oil, 2 tbs chopped ginger and the leeks and quickly saute them for 3 minutes. Lightly season the leeks with salt. Remove them from the pan and allow to cool on a tray.
• Pre heat the oven to 400 degrees. Lay out four large squares of heavy duty aluminum foil on the table (aprox, 18 x 12 inch.) Fold them in thirds and open them back up. In the center of the foil, place a small mound of the cooked leeks and top with the marinated salmon, include the marinade. Garnish the salmon with the chile pepper slices and fold the foil over to form a sealed packet. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make 3 more packets.
• Set the packets on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes in a convection (with fan) oven or 20 minutes in a regular oven.
• Open each packet carefully. There is going to be a small burst of hot steam. Slide the cooked fish and vegetables out onto a plate, with any juices. Garnish with fresh cilantro.

FOIL PACKET SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Lay the salmon skin side down on a sheet of foil. Make sure the foil is large enough to fold over into a packet.
• Drizzle with olive oil.
• Sprinkle with the lemon pepper blend (I use McCormick's).
• Fold foil into a packet and put on tray.
• Bake for 15 minutes. Check the thickest part of the salmon to see if it is opaque and flaky. It's best if the salmon is just there, but not over done. If so, take it out and let it finish cooking. If it needs a lot more, put it back in and check every 2-5 minutes.

SALMON AND ASPARAGUS IN FOIL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Snap the ends off asparagus spears (they will break where tender) and divide into 4 equal portions.
• Spray the center of each foil sheet with non-stick cooking spray.
• Place one salmon fillet in the center of each sheet, top with a serving of the asparagus and drizzle with lemon juice.
• Sprinkle with fresh ground pepper and salt or seasoning blend as desired.
• Bring up the sides of foil and fold top over twice.
• Seal ends, leaving room for air to circulate inside the packet.
• Place packets on a cookie sheet and cook in oven for 15 to 18 minutes or until salmon is opaque.
• Serve with lemon wedges on the side.
• Please use caution when opening the foil packs, as the steam is very hot.
