Ingredients

  • 4 4-ounce salmon fillets
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 12-ounce jar of your favorite salsa
  • ½ cup cherry tomatoes halved

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Place each portion of salmon in the center of a large piece of a foil. Drizzle with olive oil; season with salt and pepper to taste; then cover with salsa. Arrange cherry tomatoes around salmon. Fold the foil over the salmon then twist the ends like a candy wrapper. Place wrapped salmon on a baking sheet, and bake 40 minutes. Be careful when you unwrap the salmon; steam will escape and can burn you.
  • Goes with: Greek Onion Soup. Add 2 cups chopped onions, 2 medium potatoes, chopped, and 2 cups Italian or basil tomato sauce to a pot. Add water and/or vegetable broth to cover. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Boil over medium heat temperature for 30 minutes and serve.
