Ingredients

Instructions

Step one

Preheat oven to 400º F.

Step two

Sprinkle salmon with olive oil, salt and black pepper. In a small bowl stir together petite diced tomatoes, lime juice, olives and herbs; stir to blend.

Step three

Tear sheet of foil into rectangles, large enough to wrap salmon. Place a salmon filet on each sheet of foil. Spoon tomato mixture on top of salmon, bring sides of foil together, fold down to close and then fold ends to completely seal and make a packet. Bake until salmon is just cooked through, about 25 minutes. Internal temperature 145o when done.

Step four

For a full meal, place 4-5 asparagus spears or long green beans under salmon filet before building packet.  You can blanch the vegetables to get a head start on the cooking for more tender vegetables.
