Ingredients
Salmon
- 2 salmon fillets, skin removed, 6 ounces
- salt to taste for salmon, Kosher salt and freshly ground
- black pepper to taste for salmon, Kosher salt and freshly ground
Lemon Dill Compound Butter
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon lemon freshly grated, zest
- 2 teaspoons dill finely chopped, fresh
- 2 cloves garlic minced or pressed
- 1 teaspoon parsley finely chopped, flat leaf, fresh
- 4 tablespoons butter softened, unsalted
Gremolata
- 1/4 cup flat leaf parsley
- 1/4 cup dill fresh
- 1 clove garlic
- lemon zest of whole lemon
Instructions
For Lemon Dill Compound Butter
- In a small bowl, stir together the softened butter, salt, lemon zest, dill, and parsley. Set aside.
Gremolata
- Finely chop all the ingredients, then set aside in a bowl for serving.
Salmon
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
- Cut two 15 inch long by 12 inch wide pieces of parchment paper. Fold the long side in half and cut into a heart-shape. The parchment paper should be large enough to contain one portion of fish while folded in half.
- Place one portion of salmon on each piece of parchment on a baking sheet, then season generously with salt and pepper. Smear the softened compound butter over each portion of fish, covering from end to end.
- Fold the other half of the parchment paper over the salmon; starting at one corner, tightly crimp the edges of the paper to seal it.
- Place the pouches (papillote) on a sheet pan and bake for 8 to 10 minutes. When baked, the parchment paper should puff up and brown slightly, this is completely normal. Remove from the oven and transfer the envelope to a plate; the envelope should be carefully opened and the salmon topped with your fresh gremolata.
