Salmon in a packet (for the oven)

First of all, let me say this: Blogger has changed the format for creating posts and I do not like it. I'll get used to it but for now, please pardon me if things aren't laid out like you're used to seeing here.

This recipe will work on the grill too but since we're not quite into grilling season yet (we don't like to grill in the rain) this was baked in the oven.

This is for 2 people.

2 Pieces of salmon

4 slices lemon

2 "pats" of butter

Dill weed

Rosemary

Salt & Pepper

Aluminum Foil

Preheat oven to 350.

Place your salmon skin side down on the aluminum foil; one piece of foil per piece of salmon. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, dill weed and rosemary - whatever amounts are to your liking. Rosemary, if it is fresh can be real strong, so use sparingly. If it is dried, it's not as strong.

Place a pat of butter on top of each piece and then cover each piece with 2 slices of lemon.

Roll up your foil to completely enclose your salmon. Place on a baking sheet and put in a 350 degree oven for 18 minutes.
