  • 2 pieces Salmon fillets
  • 1/2 fruit Lemon
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme leaves
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt

  • 2 sheets Parchment paper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. 2

    Place each parchment sheet on a flat surface, fold in half, and open to create a large oval.

  3. 3

    Season each salmon fillet with salt and pepper, then place on one side of the parchment.

  4. 4

    Top each fillet with thin lemon slices, sprinkle thyme leaves, and drizzle with olive oil.

  5. 5

    Fold the parchment over the salmon and crimp the edges to seal, forming a packet.

  6. 6

    Transfer the packets to a baking sheet and bake for 12 minutes, until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
