    How to Make Salmon with Haricots Verts & Tomatoes in Parchment

    1. Preheat Oven and Season Salmon

    Preheat your oven to 425°F. Season the salmon fillets generously with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.

    2. Prepare Parchment with Vegetables

    On a 3-foot-long piece of parchment paper on a baking sheet, arrange the haricots verts, grape tomatoes, and minced garlic. Season these vegetables with a pinch of salt and pepper.

    3. Add Salmon and Lemon

    Place the seasoned salmon fillets on top of the vegetables and add a few thin slices of lemon on top. Drizzle everything with extra-virgin olive oil.

    4. Fold and Seal Parchment

    Fold the parchment paper over the ingredients, crimping the edges tightly to seal the packet into an airtight parcel.

    5. Bake in Oven

    Transfer the packet to the oven and bake for 15 minutes for medium salmon, or 20 minutes for well-done.

    6. Serve

    Carefully open the parchment, allowing the steam to escape, and serve the salmon and vegetables on a platter or in shallow bowls.

    Pitfalls and tips

    Choose Quality Ingredients

    Opt for wild-caught salmon for better flavor and texture, and ensure even thickness. Select fresh haricots verts and vibrant grape or cherry tomatoes.

    Seasoning

    Season the salmon well with salt and pepper, add high-quality olive oil or butter, and include aromatics like shallots, garlic, or fresh herbs for enhanced flavor.

    Cooking Temperature and Time

    Preheat the oven and bake at 400°F (200°C) for 12 to 15 minutes, until the salmon is opaque in the center.

    Parchment Paper Tips

    Cut the paper generously to fold and seal effectively, creating a steam pocket to lock in flavors.

    Prepping Vegetables

    Toss haricots verts and tomatoes in olive oil, salt, and pepper for even cooking. Consider additional ingredients like red bell peppers or olives.
