Skinny Salmon And Vegetable Foil Pack Dinners Recipes

SKINNY SALMON WITH MARJORAM-DIJON TOMATOES

Steps:

• Thaw fish, if frozen. Preheat oven to 450°F. Lightly coat a 13x9x2-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Rinse fish; pat dry. Cut fish into four serving-size portions. Sprinkle with 1/8 teaspoon salt. Place portions, skin sides up, in pan, tucking under any thin edges. Arrange tomatoes around salmon. Sprinkle tomatoes with Worcestershire sauce, pepper, and 1/8 teaspoon salt.
• Bake uncovered for 12 to 16 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Remove skin from fish; discard skin. Transfer fish to dinner plates. Stir mustard and marjoram into tomatoes. Serve tomato mixture with fish. If desired, garnish with oregano sprigs.

SALMON FOIL-PACK DINNER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Set out 2 large squares of foil, nonstick side up, one on top of the other. Layer sweet potato, zucchini, and squash in the middle of the top sheet, seasoning each layer with mesquite seasoning. Place salmon filet on top. Fold over the foil to seal the packet tightly.
• Bake in preheated oven until vegetables are tender and fish flakes easily with a fork, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges.

SKINNY SALMON AND VEGETABLE FOIL-PACK DINNERS

Steps:

• Thaw fish, if frozen. Rinse fish; pat dry with paper towels. Cut into four serving-size pieces, if necessary. Set aside. In a small saucepan cook carrots, covered, in a small amount of boiling water for 2 minutes. Drain and set aside. Tear off four 24-inch pieces of 18-inch-wide heavy foil. Fold each in half to make four 18x12-inch pieces.
• Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl combine carrots, mushrooms, green onion, the 1 tablespoon oregano, garlic, orange peel, half of the salt, and half of the pepper; toss gently.
• Divide vegetables among the four pieces of foil, placing vegetables in center of each piece. Place one piece of salmon on top of each portion of vegetables. Drizzle 1 teaspoon of the oil over each piece of salmon. Sprinkle each with remaining salt and pepper; top with orange slices and, if desired, a sprig of oregano. Bring together two opposite edges of foil and seal with a double fold. Fold remaining ends to completely enclose the food, allowing space for steam to build. Place the foil packets in a single layer on a baking pan.
• Bake for 30 minutes or until carrots are tender and fish begins to flake when tested with a fork. Open packets carefully to allow steam to escape. Transfer the packets to individual plates.

BAKED SALMON FOIL PACKETS WITH VEGETABLES (+ GRILL OPTION!)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C), or preheat the grill to medium.
• Lay out 4 large squares of foil (at least 12x12 inches (30x30 cm)). Place a salmon fillet in the center of each piece of foil. Divide the veggies evenly among the foil around the salmon.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, sea salt, black pepper, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, parsley and dill.
• Use about half of the oil mixture to brush the salmon, getting most of the garlic onto the salmon. Pour the remaining oil mixture evenly over the veggies. Lightly sprinkle more salt and pepper over the salmon and veggies.
• Fold the foil over and seal shut to form packets. Place onto a baking sheet.
• Bake for about 15-20 minutes, or grill (covered) for 13-18 minutes, until the salmon flakes easily with a fork or is done to your liking.
