Salmon Ratatouille Foil Packs Food

GRILLED SALMON IN A FOIL PACK

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
• Toss the onion, lemon and garlic with a generous pinch each of salt and pepper. Spread the mixture in the center of a 24-inch-long piece of heavy-duty foil. Put the salmon on top of the onion mixture, drizzle with the butter and sprinkle with the Italian seasoning and a generous amount of salt and pepper. Bring the 2 long sides of foil together and fold over twice to seal. Bring the ends of the foil in and crimp to seal, leaving a bit of room for steam to circulate inside.
• Place the packet on the grill and cook for 10 to 15 minutes. Careful of the steam, open the packet and check the salmon. It should be mostly opaque with a slightly rosy center. Transfer the package to a cutting board and set aside for about 5 minutes.
• Cut the salmon into 4 equal pieces and transfer to 4 plates. Evenly spoon the onions, lemons and collected juices over the salmon.

SALMON BAKED IN FOIL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• 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.

CREAMY SALMON WITH CHUNKY RATATOUILLE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large non-stick wok or pan, add the aubergines and cook for 5 mins, stirring, until starting to soften and brown. Add the garlic and stir for a few secs. Tip in the peppers, courgettes, passata, stock and half the chopped basil. Season, cover and cook for 20 mins, stirring occasionally, until the veg is just tender. Cool, stir in the remaining basil and spoon into 8 x 250ml shallow ovenproof dishes or foil containers.
• For the salmon, beat together the cheeses. Mix the breadcrumbs and pine nuts on a plate. Spread the top of the fish fillets with the cheese mix, then dip in the nutty crumbs to coat the cheese. Put a fillet on top of each ratatouille-filled dish.
• Put the dishes inside freezer bags and seal. Use within 6 weeks. To serve, unwrap the dishes, put on a baking tray in a cold oven, then set to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. Bake for 55 mins until bubbling and the fish is cooked. Check after 30 mins - if the crumbs are getting too brown, cover the fish with foil. Serve scattered with basil, with bread, if you like.

QUICK POACHED SALMON WITH SPEEDY RAT-ATAT-A-TOUILLE

Steps:

• Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil, ready to poach the salmon.

• Drop in the thyme and stir for another minute, then add the tomato paste and mix to coat the vegetables. Keep frying, stirring continuously, for about 45 seconds before pouring in the balsamic vinegar and 1/2 cup of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and let the ratatouille bubble away for about 10 minutes, or just until the vegetables are soft. If it seems to be getting too thick, add another 1/4 cup or so of water.
• While the veggies are simmering away, slide the salmon fillets into the boiling water. Bring back to a simmer, then cook the fish for 10 minutes, or until just cooked through.
• Using a slotted spoon, carefully lift the fish out of the water and drain well. Serve up your yummy ratatouille topped with the juicy salmon.

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.

GRILLED SALMON IN FOIL WITH HERBY GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium heat. Whisk 1 Tbsp. honey, 1½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1 tsp. Morton kosher salt, and 1 tsp. finely grated lemon zest in a small bowl to combine. Add 6 garlic cloves, finely chopped, 4 Tbsp. unsalted butter, room temperature, and 2 Tbsp. finely chopped dill and whisk again to combine (some lemon zest may remain separate and that's okay).
• Tear off a large piece of foil according to the length and thickness of salmon (15x15" or larger) and place on a rimmed baking sheet. Place one 1 lb. boneless salmon fillet, preferably skin-on, arranging skin side down if skin is on, in center of foil (the skin will stick slightly to foil and brown while the fish cooks; you want this as it will add to the sauce). Spread garlic butter over fish, then drizzle 3 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice on top. Carefully fold one side of foil up and over fish so lemon juice stays contained, then bring other sides up to meet it and fold together to seal, leaving about a 4" opening on top for steam to escape (this will help sauce reduce a bit).
• Place foil packet on grate and grill fish until opaque throughout and firm, 16-20 minutes. Transfer packet to a cutting board and let fish rest 5 minutes.
• Carefully open foil packet and cut fish in half. Transfer to plates; pour juices from packet over. Drizzle fish with remaining 1 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice, dividing evenly, and top with more finely chopped dill.
