6. 6

   Making each packet one at a time, arrange salmon on half of parchment paper.

7. 7

   Season with salt and smear with almond crust.

8. 8

   Fold top half of the paper over salmon and fold edges, origami-style, until packet is sealed.

   It will look kind of like an empanada.

    Dont worry if it comes unraveled slightly.

11. 11

    So long as youve made clean creases, no air can escape.

12. 12

    Arrange packets on 2 baking sheets and roast in oven for 15 minutes for medium rare.

13. 13

    Serve salmon directly from packets with lemon wedges on the side.

    Some simple roasted broccoli and quinoa fried rice would make an excellent healthy side.
