Ingredients:
- 4 (6 oz / 170g) salmon fillets
- 1 lemon, thinly sliced into rounds
- 1 tbsp (4g) fresh parsley, chopped
- 3 tbsp (42g) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tbsp (15ml) extra virgin olive oil
- 3 cloves (9g) garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp (15ml) fresh lemon juice
- 1 tsp (6g) kosher salt
- ½ tsp (1g) freshly cracked black pepper
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Tear off four large squares of heavy-duty foil and place two lemon slices in the center of each square to create a platform.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
- Place one salmon fillet on top of the lemon slices in each foil packet.
- Drizzle the garlic butter mixture evenly over each fillet, ensuring the sides are coated.
- Fold the sides of the foil over the salmon and pinch the edges tightly to create a sealed packet, leaving a small pocket of air inside.
- Place the packets on a baking sheet and bake for 15–20 minutes until the thickest part of the salmon reaches an internal temperature of 135°F (57°C).
- Remove from the oven, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and let the packets rest, still sealed, for 5 minutes.
