Garlic Herb Salmon and Zucchini Foil Packets
Description
This recipe for Garlic Herb Salmon and Zucchini Foil Packets involves layering salmon filets along with sliced zucchini and onion on foil sheets. The salmon and vegetables are seasoned with garlic paste or minced garlic, olive oil, Italian seasoning, sea salt, fresh cracked pepper, and dill. Folding the foil into packets traps moisture, allowing the salmon to steam gently alongside the softened vegetables.
Baking at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for around 15 minutes cooks the salmon until opaque and flaky while rendering the zucchini tender but not mushy. The olive oil and garlic provide richness and aromatic depth, and the herbs add a fresh, savory note that complements the fish.
This dish can be served straight from the foil for easy cleanup, paired with rice, quinoa, or a light salad. The foil packets preserve moisture for tender, flavorful salmon and vegetables with minimal effort and hands-on time.
