How to make Salmon Papillote
- Step 1
Cut the salmon into fillets and remove the skin. Season the salmon with salt and pepper, and place each piece on a sheet of aluminum foil.

In a skillet, melt two tablespoons of butter and sauté the chopped onion, leek, and cherry tomatoes for five minutes. Remove from heat and season with thyme, rosemary, and lemon juice.
- Step 3
Add a portion of the sautéed vegetables on top of each piece of salmon, then wrap each one into a papillote (a sealed packet). Place the papillotes on a baking tray.
- Step 4
Cook the papillotes in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 10 minutes.
- Step 5
Remove the papillotes from the oven and let them rest for five minutes.
