SALMON IN PARCHMENT WITH BABY BRUSSELS SPROUTS
Cooking the salmon in parchment paper works to keep the fish from drying out, a common problem when cooking fish in the oven. The paper also helps to contain flavors so they are not cooked off.
ingredients
2 (4- to 5-ounce) salmon fillets or steaks
2 tablespoons finely chopped petite Brussels sprouts
2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 dashes lemon juice
1 tablespoon avocado oil
method
Preheat oven to 425°F.
Place each piece of salmon on a large (12") circle of parchment paper.
Cover each salmon piece with a spoonful of Brussels sprouts, a clove of crushed garlic, a dash of lemon juice, and a drizzle of oil.
Fold the paper over into a packet and seal the edges by crimping and folding like a pastry. Place on a baking sheet.
Bake for 15 minutes, or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
