Salmon en papillote is a fancy name for cherry tomato halves roast on top of salmon fillets baked in paper. It makes a delicious, easy fuss-free dinner.
The recipe is simple, but so delicious and so good for you too. In fact, it is so simple you can practically cook it from the picture!

Layer the salmon on top of carrots and onion rings and top it with tomatoes, garlic and rosemary on parchment paper and wrap it up. You can even do it a night before cooking. When the time for dinner comes, you can steam, grill, roast or pan-grill the packages—though roasting are easiest.

The herb and vegetable can be varied at will, as long as the vegetable will finish cooking at the same time.
I simply seasoned salmon with salt and pepper, added cherry tomatoes, drizzled olive oil and baked it in the oven. After it was baked I broiled the fish for 2-3 minutes just to crisp up the top and get few charred marks on tomatoes. With just a handful of ingredients something altogether pleasing comes out in a short time.
