This is a really simple recipe that everyone seems to like. If you used canned tomatoes, I recommend the petite cut diced type. Really good over mashed potatoes or with a nice risotto.
Good 'n' easy

I was a little skeptical about tomatoes and shallots, etc. with salmon -- I tend to make brown sugar/citrus/soy sauce/dijon type glazes for salmon and love that. But I wanted to try something new for a change, and to get rid of some shallots I've had sitting in my cabinets. I'm really glad I did -- this was wonderfully flavorful and healthy tasting! Per another reviewer's recommendation, I served it over couscous. Delicious - this is a great change from my usual type salmon!

I love this recipe! It's now in the rotation. I've also used tilapia as a substitute for the salmon in the summer, and I've also added capers and olives to the tomato mixture other times. It's such an easy way to get fish into your diet!

I love salmon and hate washing dishes so I had to try this recipe. As a cheat I just spooned some restaurant style salsa on top instead of the ingredients since I figured the salsa had most of what was required anyway. The salmon turned out great! So moist and tender and full of flavor. Made it twice already and recommended it to my sister too.

I used parchment paper instead of foil and it turned out very good. Lots of flavor and easy to prepare. Was a little overdone and will decrease cooking time by 3-4 minutes.

My family thought this was a very tasty entree. Preparing the salmon in individual foil packets was easy. The simple ingredients of shallots and tomatoes complemented the salmon and kept it quite moist. I substituted tarragon for oregano, and it turned out fine. I baked it for 20 minutes in a convection oven(could have been 17)instead of 25.
Wonderful!!

For some reason I'm not really crazy about the thyme flavor. The topping wasn't that great, maybe because I used onions instead of shallots (I didn't have any). My husband didn't really care for it, and I ended up eating most of it. It did kind of grow on me after eating it for 2 days.

Giada-Girl, had this Friday and it was excellent! OK, I did add some sun-dried tomatoes and used it's oil on the salmon along with vine-ripe tomatoes, fresh oregano and thyme; the sun-dried kicked the tastebuds.Won't salt salmon next time and will have a little bread to mop the liquids and more tomatoes-had to have some on each piece of salmon.Plan to prepare for Mom at Thanksgiving. Go Giada, Go Giada!
The Best Way To Cook Salmon
08/07/2004 at 10:41am
User: JOEY from Bowling Green, KY User Rating:
At one time, I thought the only way to cook salmon was either on the grill or by smoking with Alder chips. That is until I found this recipe on Foodtv.com. When I saw this recipe, it sounded like it could be good, so I tryed it one evening. The result was far beyond our expectations. As the tomato mixture cooks, it mixes with the natural juices of the salmon. The result is a wonderful, buttery taste that keeps the salmon very moist and tender. There is no need for a dipping sauce with this recipe.

User: DAVID from Denver, CO User Rating:
I am totally surprised that this recipe received so many favorable reviews. When tin foil and tomatoes or other acidic ingredients make contact the result is inedible. Chemisty 101. The recipe would be fine done in parchment which admittedly requires slightly more work to seal but doesn't result in metalic tasting fish.
Delicious!

This recipe was delicious! I'm not a big fan of thyme, so i substituted with fresh parsley. I also used fresh oregano instead. Fresh tomatoes are better than canned, but overall, the biggest problem was serving the salmon. After your guests open up the foil, the juices run everywhere and it is a big hastle to open and such. I suggest baking the salmon in a dish and covering the dish in foil. This recipe was very tasty, though.

I love salmon but I am not an experianced cook. I tried this recipe out for my family and we loved it. I then cooked it for my boyfriend. After eating it, he remarked I was the greatest cook ever. I recommend fresh ingrediants and smaller fillets of salmon. The veggies liven up the salmon and compliment it well. I was unsure which is the "oiled side" to put down on the foil. I generally put the side with the scales down.

Great recipe and great food for thought. You can modify the herbs and veggies to your heart's content. This is also great when you don't know how many people are coming for dinner. Cook a slab of salmon in one piece. Open the foil of the finished dish, put the veggies aside and cut the fish into however many portions are needed. Then put the veggies back on top of the individual portions or serve them in a serving bowl.

Wow! This is without a doubt the best salmon recipe I have. It is so incredibly easy and good. I served it with couscous. To make it even easier, I just throw everything in a casserole dish and toss it in the oven for 20 minutes. I also use the diced tomatoes that already have Italian spices for some extra kick. It is tender and flaky and so delicious. Definitely a keeper!
Excellent and too easy!

I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW EASY AND DELICIOUS THIS RECIPE IS. I PREPARED IT EARLY IN THE DAY AND POPPED IT IN THE OVEN WHEN I GOT HOME. EVEN MY KIDS LOVED IT. I COOKED THEIRS WITH JUST A LITTLE TOPPING, SO IT WOULD HAVE FLAVOR AND SCRAPED IT OFF FOR THE PICKY ONE, AFTER IT COOKED. EVERYONE LOVED IT! A KEEPER

Great. I loved the idea for serving in parchment instead of foil. makes it easier to serve. I did not see the idea for couscous but I agree and will try it. This is easily as good as a $30 meal I had in Chicago with no fuss. This one goes in the guest menue box.
Absolutely Fantastic!!

This went together quickly. Excellent flavor with visual appeal. Easy clean up, too! Reviewers who commented that this was bland must have only partial use of their taste buds...or else they need to get some fresher herbs, a real lemon, and some good olive oil! Tried it once with tomatoes w/ diced chilis for my husband who likes some heat but it was just a bit too overpowering. Mabye just a pinch of pepper flakes in the future? Garlic instead of shallots works fine. A can of artichoke hearts makes a nice addition. Thanks for another lovely recipe, Giada!

This recipe for salmon is outstanding. Giada is one of the best! But I took one of her other recipes and blended the two. I added some spinach under each piece of salmon, then poured about 3 T of white wine around the salmon. Wow, it was outstanding. Hope you enjoy too.

I have not yet tried this, but judging from the review, it will be very very soon...but to address your concerns with using foil...I would recommend using parchment paper instead...I believe the results would be just as good... p.s. I'm giving this a five star rating judged by the many rave reviews...I'm sure I'll agree....

I love this recipe! Baking the salmon in the foil pockets is such a great way to keep the salmon moist and super juicy and the tomato mixure hot and tender. The juices that reside inside the foil are great for dipping the salmon into and you will want to savor every bite. Again, this recipe has a presentation that will make guests think you put more time and effort into the meal than you actually did. This truly is a great alternative to the typical ways of cooking salmon. A+

This was so easy to make and turned out great. I agree that you need to shave a few minutes off baking time, it was a bit overcooked for me. It also needed a little salt and I bet adding minced garlic next time would make it even better. Try that if you love garlic.

I don't particularily care for salmon that much unless it's smoked, so I was primarily making this for my husband and daughter. I was a little skeptical about how the salmon would taste with tomaotes on it, but I wanted to try the baking in foil technique with it. It turned out to be one of the best things I have ever made!!! Absolutley delicious! I used her instructions from her "Everyday Italian" cookbook (which are a little different from these) almost to the letter except for only doing 2 fillets and it was cooked perfectly. The flavors went well together. My husband loved it. It was quite easy and she says the foil packets can be prepared about 6 hours ahead, so I'm going to make this for my daughter's birthday in a few weeks.

I've used this recipe many times now and practically memorized it. I prefer using fresh tomatoes it adds a little more flavor than canned. My salmon came out moist and delicious. The only thing I would change is the cooking time. Depending on how thick your salmon is, I bake it for 15 - 18 minutes. Also remember that even after you take it out of the oven, it will still continue to cook a little in the foil.
