Lemon & Wine Steam Baked In Foil Salmon - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 lb salmon fillet
2 lemons, sliced thick
1 bunch shallot, coarse chopped
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 bunch fresh oregano sprig
1 bunch fresh thyme sprig
1/8 cup olive oil
1 pinch salt
1 pinch fresh ground pepper
1 (187 ml) bottle white wine

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 400\u00b0.
Lay out a piece of foil at least twice as big as the section(s) of salmon being cooked.
Coat the center with olive oil covering the area the salmon will take up plus a bit extra.
Sprinkle some of the chopped shallots over an area about the size of the piece of salmon.
Place in one layer the lemon slices to cover the same area.
Lay out several oregano and thyme sprigs on top of the lemons.
Brush one side of the salmon with olive oil.
Place salmon oil side down on the lemons and shallots in the foil.
Brush the other side of the salmon with olive oil.
Optional; salt and pepper to taste.
Lay out several oregano and thyme sprigs.
Sprinkle the remainder of the chopped shallots over the top.
Cover with the reminder of the lemon slices.
Bring up all four sides to form an envelope to hold in the liquid leaving the top open for the moment.
Pour in the wine and lemon juice.
Roll the foil loosely to seal the fish in and prevent leaking.
Place on baking sheet or baking dish in case of leaking and insert in oven.
Cook at 400\u00b0 for approximately 20 - 25 minutes.
Open foil exposing fish and broil on high for 4 to 8 minutes.
Remove oregano and thyme sprigs before serving.
