Salmon And Zucchini Papillote: A Recipe For Summer

If you're watching your waistline or are a fan of steaming, try our Salmon and Zucchini Foil recipe. This complete dish features seasonal vegetables like zucchini, tomatoes and basil.

Ingredients

Here are the ingredients needed to make a salmon and zucchini papillote for 4 people:

4 salmon fillets
2 large trumpet zucchinis
3 tomatoes
a small bunch of fresh basil
salt and pepper
a drizzle of olive or rapeseed oil

Preparation

To cook this salmon and zucchini papillote, start by preparing the vegetables.

1- Wash the zucchini and cut off the ends. Cut them into thin slices.

2- If you like crunchy vegetables, you can put them raw in the papillote. If you prefer more melting zucchini, blanch them in boiling salted water for 5 minutes before adding them to your papillote.

3- Wash the tomatoes and dice them. Wash and dry the basil.

Assembly and cooking

1- Place a large sheet of baking paper in the basket of your steamer.

2- Place the zucchini slices in the bottom of the foil. Season with salt and pepper and place the salmon fillets on top.
