Foil Packet Soy-Lime Salmon with Green Beans

February 18, 2013 by Jaida Leave a Comment

I think somebody needs to check my temperature. I’m sure I must be sick. It’s Monday and I’m actually not wishing it was still the weekend. I mean, of course I’d love an extra day, but it’s not the usual ohmygodshootmeintheheadit’smonday kind of day. I had a super relaxing, yet productive, weekend and I woke up this morning ready to face a busy week. I guess small miracles really can happen!!

Maybe it was the amazing dinner I had last night. Quick, easy, healthy, and most importantly…delicious! But, anytime I get a recipe from Shawnda’s blog, I know it will be nothing less than amazing. Her pictures alone make me want to lick my computer screen…not that I’ve ever tried it or anything. Seriously.

Foil Packet Soy-Lime Salmon and Green Beans
Come on…you know you want to try it, too!! I’ve had this on the menu for a couple of weeks now and thank gaawwwd I finally got around to making it!!! And then I devoured it in about 3.5 seconds. Or something like that. Deeelish!
Foil-Packet Soy-Lime Salmon with Green Beans
Very slightly adapted from Confections of a Foodie Bride
Ingredients
  • 2  6 oz salmon fillets
  • 2 Tbsp Ponzu Lime Sauce (or soy sauce)
  • 2 tsp honey
  • Red pepper flakes
  • 2 green onions, cut and divided (white and light green parts separated)
  • 1 lime, quartered
  • Green beans, trimmed (10-12 per packet)
  • 1 clove garlic, thinly sliced
  • Olive oil for drizzling
  • Salt & Pepper, to taste

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 425 and tear 2 pieces of foil, about 12 inches long.
  2. Place a salmon fillet in the center of each piece of foil (skin side down, if the skin is still on).
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the ponzu and honey. Brush the salmon fillets with the sauce until it is gone, then squeeze 1 lime quarter over the top of each.
  4. Season with salt and pepper, then top with the white & light green onions, and a pinch of crushed red pepper.
  5. Place 10-12 green beans on top of each piece of salmon and top with garlic slices and a drizzle of olive oil.
  6. Seal the foil packet by bringing the right and left sides together and folding them down a couple of times to seal, then fold up each end.
  7. Bake for about 18 minutes, and allow to cool for a few minutes before opening (be careful of the steam that will be released!)
  8. Transfer the contents of each packet to a plate, drizzle remaining sauce from the packet over the top. Then, sprinkle the dark green parts of the onion on top and serve with the remaining lime quarters.

Welcome!

As a busy wife and mom who also works a full time job, I try to have dinner done in 30 minutes or less so I can spend more of my evenings with my hubby and baby girl, so what you will find here are recipes that are mostly-healthy, quick and easy. Of course I have desserts, less healthy and more time-intensive meals as well (everything in moderation!), but all-in-all, you can count on weeknight friendly options, all made with love and dished up with a side of life, love, and family!
