    List of Ingredients




    Succulent Salmon in Parchment


    2 slices onion, 1/4 inch thick, halved
    1 large carrot, cut crosswise into 4 sections, then quarter each section lengthwise into 4 sticks
    1/2 tsp Kosher (or other coarse) salt
    1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
    Four 4-ounce boneless and skinless salmon fillets, 1/2 inch thick
    2 tbsp Extra-virgin olive oil
    2 thin slices of lemon, halved
    2 thin slices of navel orange, halved
    4 sprigs flat-leaf parsley, for garnish (optional)

    Recipe





    1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

    2. Cut 4 sheets of parchment paper (12x16 inches).

    3. Take one sheet of paper. In a 4 inch long section down the center, break apart and spread one of the onion quarters.

    4. On top of onion, spread 4 sticks of carrots.

    5. Place 1 salmon fillet on top.

    6. Drizzle with 1/2 tbsp olive oil.

    7. Season with salt and pepper.

    8. Top fillets with 1 lemon piece and 1 orange piece.

    9. Bring the two edges of paper on either side of the fillet together. Along the top edge, make a 1/2 inch fold. Continue folding down until you reach the top of the salmon. Then, close the ends of paper by making two 1/2 inch folds and tucking it snugly under the fish.

    10. Place on a baking sheet. Repeat these steps until all four parchments have been filled.

    11. Bake 15 to 18 minutes.

    12. Carefully place hot packet on a plate, carefully slice open parchment, and serve immediately in the parchment packet.
