**Salmon en Papillote with Dill-Yogurt Sauce** Use a dry white wine if you don't have vermouth on hand. Serve with a salad.

Ingredients

Yogurt sauce:

  • 1/2 cup grated seeded peeled cucumber
  • 3/4 cup plain low-fat yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt

Remaining ingredients:

  • 2 cups thinly sliced fennel bulb (about 1 medium)
  • 1/2 cup thinly sliced leek (about 1 small)
  • 2 teaspoons extravirgin olive oil
  • 4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets, skinned
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 cup dry vermouth
  • Chopped fresh dill (optional)

Preparation

  • To prepare yogurt sauce, place grated cucumber on several layers of paper towels;

    cover with additional paper towels.

  • Let stand 5 minutes, pressing down occasionally.

  • Combine cucumber, yogurt, and next 3 ingredients (through garlic) in a small bowl.

  • Stir in 1/4 teaspoon pepper and 1/8 teaspoon salt.

  • Cover and refrigerate 1 hour.

  • Preheat oven to 425°.

  • Cut 4 (15 x 24-inch) pieces of parchment paper. Fold in half crosswise. Draw a large

    heart half on each piece, with the fold of the paper being the center of the heart.

    Cut out the heart, and open. Place about 1/2 cup fennel near fold of each piece of parchment.

  • Top each serving with 2 tablespoons leek and 1/2 teaspoon oil.

  • Sprinkle salmon evenly with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.

  • Place 1 fillet on each serving. Drizzle 1 tablespoon vermouth over each serving.

  • Starting at the top of the heart, fold edges of parchment, sealing edges with narrow folds.

  • Twist the end tip to secure tightly. Place packets on a baking sheet.

  • Bake at 425° for 15 minutes.

  • Remove from oven, and let stand 5 minutes.

  • Place on plates; cut open. Garnish with chopped fresh dill, if desired.

  • Serve immediately with yogurt sauce.
