Salmon en Papillote

Salmon en Papillote
Julia and Jacques Cooking at Home

Yield: 1 fillet, serving 1

Stick the fish on a olive-oil coated parchment paper, salt and pepper it, and use some fresh herbs like Dill. Or that other one, ask mom.

Preheat oven to 425F.
Make the sheet into a circle, make cascading scalloped folds to enclose and twist ends to seal. Try to trap a lot of air in there.
Stick them on a cookie sheet.
Bake 8 minutes for a fillet less than an inch thick, 10 minutes for a thick fillet 1- 1.25 in. thick.

P.S. Can just use a brown paper bag at home. Or, for grilling outdoors, foil.
