This is salmon with lime and basil… I dislike fish and was trying to figure out something I would like – no luck, but everyone who has tried this raves about it!
Ready in: 8 mins

Ingredients

Serves: 2

• 2 (4 ounce) slices FRESH salmon (skin on)
• 1/2 lime
• basil to taste
• wax paper or parchment paper

Preparation method

Prep: 5 mins | Cook: 3 mins

1. Start with a piece of paper large enough to make a packet for the Salmon.
2. Place salmon skin side down in the center of 1/2 of the paper.
3. Squeeze the lime over the salmon trying to wet thoroughly.
4. Sprinkle liberally with dried basil, or cover with fresh basil leaves.
5. Fold paper in half, then start at one corner and make small folds one after the other so that the next fold over laps the previous fold until you reach the other side and have sealed the packet.
6. Place packet on a microwave safe dish and place in microwave oven.
7. Cook in microwave oven on high for 3 minutes.
