Ingredients

4 salmon fillets (6 ounces each)

1/4 cup honey

1/4 cup soy sauce (low sodium preferred)

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 cup snap peas, trimmed

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 cup corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Sesame seeds and chopped green onions for garnish

Instructions

Prepare the Marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil until well combined. Set aside 2 tablespoons of this marinade in a separate bowl for later use.

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Prepare the Foil: Cut four large pieces of aluminum foil (about 12x18 inches each). Place them on a flat surface and create a small lip around the edges to hold in any juices.

Season the Salmon: Lay one salmon fillet on the center of each piece of foil. Brush each fillet generously with the marinade, reserving the 2 tablespoons set aside earlier. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Add the Vegetables: Divide the snap peas, sliced bell pepper, and corn evenly among the four foil packs, placing the veggies around the salmon.

Seal the Packs: Drizzle the olive oil over the veggies and salmon in each pack. Carefully fold the edges of the aluminum foil over the salmon and vegetables, sealing them tightly to create a packet.

Bake: Place the foil packets on a baking sheet and transfer them to the preheated oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Serve: Carefully open the foil packets (watch out for steam!) and drizzle the reserved marinade over the salmon and vegetables. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped green onions for garnish.

Enjoy! Serve directly from the foil packs, or transfer to plates for a beautiful presentation.
