• Ingredients
• 1 small zucchini, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced
• 1 shallot, thinly sliced
• 1 tablespoon butter, cut into pieces
• 1/4 teaspoon dried dill weed
• 1 lemon slice, halved, plus 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
• coarse salt and ground pepper
• 1 skinless salmon fillet (6 to 8 ounces)

Preparation

Step 1

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Fold a large piece of parchment paper (about 15 by 16 inches) in half to crease it; open, and lay it flat.

On one side of crease, mound zucchini; top with shallot, butter, dill, and lemon slices. Season with salt and pepper. Place salmon on top; drizzle with lemon juice, and season with salt and pepper.

To close, fold parchment over salmon; make small overlapping pleats to seal the open sides and create a half-moon-shaped packet. Place on a rimmed baking sheet; bake until salmon is opaque throughout, 15 to 17 minutes. Serve (see note).

Cook's Note

Two Ways to Serve: You can either place the packet on a plate and cut it open, or make a slit in the paper and use a large metal spatula to transfer the contents to a serving plate.
