1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, plus more for the parchment paper
Four 7- to 8-ounce salmon fillets, skin removed
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 medium carrot, cut into thin matchsticks
1 large leek, white part only, cut into thin matchsticks
1 small zucchini, cut into thin matchsticks
2 Roma or plum tomatoes, seeded and chopped
1/4 cup minced shallots
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon
1/4 cup dry white wine
Lemon wedges, for serving

1
Position racks in the center and top third of the oven and preheat to 375F.
2
Cut four 14-inch-wide pieces of parchment paper and fold each in half lengthwise.
3
Cut out a wide curve from each piece of parchment, so when it is unfolded you have a heart shape about 12 inches wide.
4
Brush each piece of parchment with oil.
5
Place a salmon fillet on the bottom half of each heart and season the fillet with salt and pepper to taste.
6
Mix the carrot, leek, zucchini, tomatoes, shallots, parsley, and tarragon in a medium bowl, and season lightly with salt and pepper.
7
Divide the vegetables evenly over the top of each fillet.
8
Drizzle 1 tablespoon each of olive oil and wine over each fillet.
9
Fold the top half of each heart down, and crimp the edges tightly to seal.
10
(The packets may be made up to 3 hours ahead and refrigerated until ready to bake.)
11
Place the parchment hearts on 2 baking sheets.
12
Bake until the parchment is lightly browned, about 12 minutes for medium-rare salmon.
13
Place each parchment heart on a dinner plate.
14
Serve immediately with lemon wedges.
15
Let your guests pierce open their parchment hearts with the tip of a sharp knife (provide scissors, if you wish), being careful of any escaping steam.
