Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Prepare four 10-inch-long pieces of aluminum foil.

Step 2

Rub each salmon filet on both sides with the olive oil. Season each with salt and pepper and place one in the center of each piece of foil.

Step 3

Drizzle the orange juice over each piece of fish and top with 1 teaspoon orange zest and 1 tablespoon dill.

Step 4

For each packet, fold the two long sides of the foil together and then fold the short ends in to make a packet. Make sure to leave about 2 inches of air space within the foil so the fish can steam. Place the packets on a baking sheet.

Step 5

Bake for 15 minutes. Open the packets carefully (they will be very steamy), transfer the fish to 4 serving plates, and pout the sauce over top of each.
