Salmon And Tomatoes In Foil Recipes

Steps:

• For each of 4 packages, place one 12-inch-long sheet of aluminum foil on top of another. Smear top sheet with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil, and layer a fillet of salmon, 6 tomato halves, salt and pepper, 4 basil leaves and another half tablespoon oil. Seal package by folding foil onto itself and crimping edges tightly. Repeat to make other packages, and refrigerate until ready to cook, no more than 24 hours later.
• When you are ready to cook, heat oven to 500 degrees. Place packages in a roasting pan. (Or they can be cooked on top of the stove in 2 skillets over medium-high heat.) Cook 5 minutes (for medium-rare) to 8 minutes from the time the mixture starts to sizzle, or roughly 10 to 12 minutes total.
• Let packages rest a minute, and cut a slit along the top with a knife. Use a knife and fork to open the package. Spoon the salmon, garnish and juices onto a plate, and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Sprinkle salmon with 2 teaspoons olive oil, salt, and pepper. Stir the tomatoes, shallots, 2 tablespoons of oil, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, salt and pepper in a medium bowl to blend.
• Place a salmon fillet, oiled side down, atop a sheet of foil. Wrap the ends of the foil to form a spiral shape. Spoon the tomato mixture over the salmon. Fold the sides of the foil over the fish and tomato mixture, covering completely; seal the packets closed. Place the foil packet on a heavy large baking sheet. Repeat until all of the salmon have been individually wrapped in foil and placed on the baking sheet. Bake until the salmon is just cooked through, about 25 minutes. Using a large metal spatula, transfer the foil packets to plates and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°. Place tomatoes in a foil-lined 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Drizzle with oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Roast until tomatoes are softened, 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally., Meanwhile, sprinkle fillets with salt and pepper. In a large cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add fillets; cook 3 minutes on each side. Remove from pan., Add garlic to pan; cook and stir 1 minute. Add broth, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Bring to a boil; cook until liquid is reduced by half, 1-2 minutes. Stir in roasted tomatoes; return salmon to pan. Bake until fish just begins to flake easily with a fork, 5-7 minutes.

Steps:

• Take 2 sheets of aluminum foil, each about 18 inches long, and place one piece on top of the other; repeat with 2 more sheets (you will make 2 packages). Smear the top sheet of each pair with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, then cover with 2 pieces of salmon, 12 tomato halves, some salt and pepper, 8 basil leaves, and another tablespoon of oil. Fold the foil onto itself and crimp the edges as tightly as possible. Repeat the process. (You can refrigerate the packages until you're ready to cook, no more than 6 hours later.) Put a baking pan in the oven and preheat it to 450°F shortly before cooking.
• Put the packages in the baking pan and bake for about 15 minutes (or about 8 minutes from the time it starts sizzling). Let sit for a couple of minutes before carefully slitting open the package-spoon out (the tomato will have liquefied) and serve.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine the tomatoes, parsley, capers, oil, garlic, lemon zest and juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
• Season the salmon on both sides with salt and pepper. Place each salmon fillet on a sheet of aluminum foil and top with a few tablespoons of the tomato mixture. Fold the foil sheets into packets. (If making this recipe in advance, store the packets on a baking sheet in the refrigerator until time to grill.)
• Place the packets on the grill and cover. Cook 10 to 12 minutes for medium.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450. Place a baking sheet in oven to heat while you prep the salmon.
• Tear two pieces of foil (big enough to wrap salmon with some overlapping).
• Place foil pieces one on top of the other.
• Put about 2 teaspoons olive oil in center of top piece of foil and lay salmon on top of oil.
• Spread each piece of salmon with about 2 teaspoons basil pesto.
• Arrange sliced tomatoes over pesto so they cover the top of the salmon.
• Wrap salmon securely in foil, doubling over the seam and ends several times.
• Place salmon packet on heated baking sheet and cook 15 minutes.
• Remove from oven after 15 minutes and let sit 2 to 3 minutes.
• Then open carefully and serve immediately, while salmon and tomatoes are hot.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking pan with aluminum foil.
• Drizzle olive oil onto the prepared pan in an area slightly larger than the salmon fillet. Place tomatoes in a layer on the oiled foil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Layer basil over top and place salmon on the basil. Squeeze lemon over salmon and season again with salt and pepper.
• Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, 30 to 40 minutes.
