Print Recipe
Print
people
  1. Preheat oven to 350˚. Fold a large piece of parchment paper (about 15 by 16 inches) in half to crease it; open, and lay it flat. On one side of crease, mound zucchini; top with shallot, dill and lemon slices. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Place salmon on top; drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice, and season with salt and pepper.
  2. To close, fold parchment over salmon; make small overlapping pleats to seal the open sides and create a half-moon-shaped packet. Place on a rimmed baking sheet; bake until salmon is opaque throughout, 15 to 17 minutes.
  3. To serve, place the packet on a plate and cut it open, or make a slit in the paper and use a large metal spatula to transfer the contents to a serving plate.
