Garlic Herb Salmon and Zucchini Foil Packets – a good, complete meal bursting with flavor from one foil pouch!
At Avdaye, we add lots of tips in all of our recipes – because we are a home cook without any formal training, and we find we are more confident making dishes when we understand why it works, and what each ingredient means to the flavor of a recipe. Our goal is for even the most beginner home cook to feel empowered in the kitchen.
Simple good Salmon Zucchini Packets
For someone with a website dedicated to food, we can be a horribly scatterbrained cook.
We are someone who often forgets to make meals ahead of time – relying on throwing something together at the last minute.
Lately, with our husband and we both trying out a slow-carb (think paleo, but no fruit and with beans) diet, we've been especially guilty of slacker cooking – and we've relied on our fair share of dump it and bake style meals.
One night we were particularly rushed, and exhausted from the thought of dinner, when we decided to put a spin on a recent favorite recipe – a simple sheet pan salmon bursting with lemon and herb flavor.
This dish is a complete meal on one pan – complete with side dishes!
And the best part? You dump the ingredients, drizzle the oil and sprinkle the herbs – then bake!
You can't get any easier or more good than this meal in 15 minutes – this will be one of your new go-to dinners!
