Salmon packets are a popular dish featuring fresh salmon fillets wrapped in foil or parchment paper along with vegetables, herbs, and seasonings. Common additions include asparagus, zucchini, cherry tomatoes, garlic, and lemon slices, often drizzled with olive oil or a light sauce. This cooking method, originating in French cuisine (en papillote), seals in moisture and flavors, creating a succulent and aromatic meal. Salmon is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, high-quality protein, and essential vitamins like B12 and D, which support heart health, brain function, and overall well-being. The vegetable additions boost fiber and antioxidants, making this dish nutritionally balanced. Still, fat content may increase with heavy sauces or excessive oil. Ideal for anyone seeking a healthy, flavorful option, salmon packets are versatile, easy to prepare, and adapt well to various taste preferences or dietary needs.
