Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees Celsius (about 400 Fahrenheit).
  2. Cut a large sheet of aluminum foil for one serving, enough to fold and seal the packet.
  3. Place the salmon fillet in the center of the foil sheet.
  4. Spread the cream cheese evenly over the top of the salmon fillet.
  5. Arrange the sliced zucchini, diced red bell pepper, and julienned carrot around and on top of the salmon.
  6. Drizzle the olive oil and fresh lemon juice over the salmon and vegetables.
  7. Sprinkle the minced garlic, chopped fresh dill, salt, and ground black pepper evenly over the ingredients.
  8. Fold the foil over the salmon and vegetables to create a sealed packet, making sure it is tightly closed to trap steam.
  9. Place the foil packet on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, until the salmon is cooked through and vegetables are tender.
  10. Carefully open the foil packet to avoid steam burns and serve immediately.

Tips

  • Use fresh salmon for best flavor and texture.
