Step-By-Step Instructions:
-
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray 4 8x8 inch sheets of aluminum foil with cooking spray. Set aside.
-
In a small bowl, combine lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper and set aside.
-
Place ¼ of the zucchini, onion, and bell pepper in the center of each sheet of foil. Top each with a salmon fillet.
-
Pour ¼ of the lemon juice mixture over each salmon fillet. Top with ½ teaspoon olive oil.
-
Bring the sides of the foil up on both sides and seal tightly for form a packet. Place the foil packets on a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes.
-
Check to make sure the salmon is cooked through. Open one packet slightly and place an instant read thermometer into the thickest part of the salmon. The salmon is done when it reaches at least 145 degrees F.
-
Safety tip: Be careful when opening the foil packets because the steam could burn you.
