How do I make this Garlic Parmesan Salmon in Foil?

You will begin by preheating the oven to 400 degrees.

Season the top of the salmon with salt and pepper.

Line a baking sheet with foil and sprat the foil with non stick cooking spray.

Tear off a 24 inch x 18 inch piece of foil. Fold it in half to make a 18 x 12 foil piece. Place foil piece on top of prepared baking sheet.

Place salmon fillets on the center of the foil.

I like to buy my salmon fillets from either Trader Joe’s or Costco. Trader Joe’s are precut into 1/2 pound fillets. 

In a small bowl, mix together butter, Parmesan, minced garlic, and parsley. 

Using a spoon cover the salmon with cheese mixture

in an even layer.

Fold foil over salmon, covering completely and seal completely, by pressing the edges together.

Bake until the salmon is cooked through, about 20 minutes.

Uncover the salmon. 

Turn oven to broil (550 degrees) and broil until top begins to lightly brown,

about 8-10 more minutes.

Ingredients:

• 1 lb. salmon fillet, skin removed, cut into 2 pieces 
• 1/2 tsp salt 
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 1/4 cup fresh grated Parmesan
• 2 Tbsp Land o’ Lakes light butter butter made with canola oil, melted
• 2 cloves garlic, minced 
• 2 Tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Season the top of the salmon with salt and pepper.

5. Place salmon fillets on the center of the foil.
6. Fold the edges of the foil inward- so the cheese mixture stays in. 
7. In a small bowl, mix together butter, Parmesan, minced garlic, and parsley. 
8. Using a spoon cover the salmon with cheese mixture in an even layer.
9. Fold foil over salmon, covering completely and seal completely, by pressing the edges together.
