MICROWAVE SALMON FILLET EN PAPILLOTE
Altered "Good Eats" recipe by Alton Brown, the original recipe is on the Food Network website listed as "Salmon Fillet en Papillote with Julienne Vegetables". Cooks in the microwave in MINUTES! You can do it in the oven too, but why bother?!?! You'll need parchment paper for this easy, super-tasty, company-worthy, HEALTHY meal. Serves one person; easily multiplied. Asparagus, a smashed garlic clove, orange slices, red and yellow bell peppers, fresh thyme, ground coriander seeds and green beans have all worked their way into this dish at one point or another, all of them working wonderfully.

Steps:
- Take a 15 by 36-inch piece of parchment paper and fold in 1/2 like a book. Draw a large 1/2 heart on paper with fold of paper being the center of the heart. Cut out heart and open.
- Lay fennel, leeks, carrots, and snow peas on parchment in center to 1 side of fold. Mix together salt, pepper, and dill. Sprinkle vegetables with 1/2 of salt, pepper, and dill. Lay salmon on top of vegetables and season with remaining salt, pepper and coriander.
- Top with the lemon and sprinkle with wine. Fold other side of heart over fish and starting at top of heart shape, fold up both edges of parchment, overlapping folds as you move along. Once you reach the end tip, twist several times to secure tightly.
- Place on microwave safe plate and cook for 4 minutes, on high in microwave, or until fish reaches 131 degrees. Open parchment carefully and serve for a complete meal.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Fold two 16-by-24-inch pieces of parchment paper in half like a book. Using kitchen shears or a chef's knife, cut each into a large half-heart. When unfolded, a whole heart should appear.
- Use a chef's knife or mandoline to very thinly slice the fennel bulb. Cut the leek in half lengthwise, then place on your cutting board flat side down. Slice lengthwise into thin strips (this is called julienne). Very thinly slice the bell pepper lengthwise.
- To assemble the parchment paper packets, drizzle some olive oil on the bottom of each piece and rub it all over one side of each piece of parchment. Place the lemon slices to one side of the creased line down the middle of the parchment paper hearts. Top with the sliced fennel, leeks and bell pepper; season with a pinch of salt and pepper and a drizzle of olive oil. Drizzle the white wine over the veggies. Sprinkle the salmon with a good pinch of salt and few good grinds of pepper and top each with 1 tablespoon of butter. Then place on top of the veggies. To seal the packets, fold the other half of the heart over the fish. Starting at the pointy end or bottom of the heart, fold the edge of the parchment paper in small, overlapping triangles. This will help to create a tight seal and hold in all the steam. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until the vegetables are tender and the fish is just cooked through, 15 to 17 minutes.
- Meanwhile, toss the fennel fronds, dill and parsley together in a small bowl until combined. Cut a slit in the top of each packet, then carefully open--there will be hot steam! Sprinkle with the fresh herb salad and serve.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400°F. Cut four 15-inch rounds of parchment paper. Fold each in half; unfold. Lightly brush 1/2 teaspoon oil onto each parchment round to within 1 inch of edge.
- Arrange potato slices evenly on half of each parchment round. Sprinkle with half of the salt and pepper. Top each with salmon; sprinkle with remaining salt and pepper. Top each with carrots, tomatoes and 2 herb sprigs.
- To seal each packet, fold untopped side of parchment round over topped side. Fold open edge over several times, folding and twisting until packet is completely sealed. Place packets on ungreased cookie sheet.
- Bake at 400°F. for 15 to 20 minutes, depending on thickness of fillets. Carefully unwrap 1 packet to check if fish flakes easily with fork; re-wrap and continue baking if not done.
- Remove packets from oven; let stand 5 minutes before serving. Place packets on individual serving plates. Cut X-shaped slit in top of each packet; carefully tear back paper to serve.

SALMON AND VEGETABLES EN PAPILLOTE
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cut out 4 heart shapes from parchment or foil, each 14 inches wide by 9 inches long. Lightly butter foil, if using. Place seasoned salmon on 1 side of parchment or foil. Heat medium skillet on medium high heat. Add butter and melt. Add mushrooms and saute until slightly golden. Add shallots, salt and pepper. Cook 2 minutes. Add chayote and wine. Cook until almost dry. Add epasote and lemon juice. Cool. Divide mixture between salmon fillets, mounding slightly. Fold second half of parchment over salmon, enclosing completely. Fold edges over to secure tightly.
- Place parchment packages on baking sheet. Bake until packets are puffed and salmon is cooked through, about 10 minutes.
SALMON AND VEGETABLES EN PAPILLOTE
Steps:
- To prepare the vegetables: Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Place 4 sheets of parchment paper on a work surface. Trim the cauliflower and broccoli florets from the stems, discarding the stems, and divide the florets among the parchment sheets.
- Peel the carrot and cut into 1/16-to 1/8-inch-thick round slices. Place some of the carrots on each parchment sheet. Cut the ends off the green beans and cut each bean into 3 or 4 pieces. Arrange some of the beans on each parchment sheet and top with 1 teaspoon of butter. Place 2 thyme sprigs and 1 teaspoon of water on each parchment sheet. Season with salt and pepper. Bring the sides of the parchment to the middle and fold over three times, about 1/2 inch each time. Fold the ends of the parchment and tuck them under the package to loosely enclose the vegetables. Place the vegetable packets on an ungreased baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the salmon: Lay 4 sheets of parchment paper on a work surface and place 1 salmon fillet in the center of each sheet. Cut 2 of the lemons in half, remove the seeds, and squeeze the juice from 1 lemon half on each salmon fillet. Season with salt and pepper and top each fillet with 2 thyme sprigs. Bring the sides of the parchment to the middle and fold over three times, about 1/2 inch each time. Fold the ends of the parchment and tuck them under the package, loosely enclosing the salmon. Add the salmon packets to the baking sheet and bake them for 10 minutes. (If your pieces of salmon are thicker than 3/4 inch, you will need to cook them up to 5 minutes longer.)
- Cut the remaining lemon into 8 wedges.
- Remove the salmon and vegetables from the parchment and arrange them on plates with the lemon wedges.
