Ingredients

• 2 cups Roasted capsicum (see related recipe), thinly sliced


• 1 green onion, thinly sliced


• 1 garlic clove, thinly sliced


• 1/2 small lemon, sliced into thin matchsticks


• 1/3 cup chopped fresh herbs (see note)


• 2 teaspoons chopped capers


• 4 (150g) salmon fillets, skin off

Equipment

Method

  Step 1
  
  
  
  
  Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. Combine capsicum, onion, garlic, lemon, herbs and capers in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper.

  Lightly grease one side of each piece of foil. Place 1 piece of salmon onto the centre of 1 piece of prepared foil. Top with 1/4 capsicum mixture. Fold up sides of foil and scrunch edges together, leaving a small opening in the top to allow steam to escape. Place onto a baking tray. Repeat with remaining salmon fillets and capsicum mixture.

Notes

Cooking the salmon in foil infuses it with the flavours of fresh herbs and lemon. We used basil and flat-leaf parsley, but you could also use dill.
