New Potatoes Baked In Parchment Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Place potatoes in a large saucepan; add enough water to cover potatoes by 2 inches. Place saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Cook potatoes until almost tender when pierced with the tines of a fork, about 20 minutes.
• Drain potatoes; cut in half and evenly spread on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and rosemary; toss to combine. Transfer to oven and roast until golden and tender, about 25 minutes. Serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a bowl stir together the butter, the mint, the shallot, the zest, and salt and pepper to taste until the mixture is combined well. Add the potatoes, trimmed and sliced as thin as possible, and toss the mixture gently to coat the potatoes well. Put the parchment paper on a work surface, fold each piece in half by bringing the short ends together, and with scissors trim the unfolded edges of each piece to form a half-heart shape. Unfold the papers, divide the potatoes among them, arranging the potatoes just to one side of the fold line, and fold the other halves of the papers over the potatoes. Beginning with a folded corner, twist and fold the edges of each paper together, forming half-heart-shaped packets, and seal the ends tightly by twisting them. Bake the packets on a baking sheet in the middle of the oven for 17 minutes. Serve the potatoes in the packets and slit the packets open at the table.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place a rimmed baking sheet in oven to heat. Cut parchment to size.
• Stir together butter, capers, parsley, and garlic in a small bowl; set aside.
• Divide potato slices between parchment rectangles, layering them in stacks to form a bed (slightly larger than the salmon fillet) to one side of crease. Season with salt and pepper.
• Top each bed of potatoes with one quarter of the shallots followed by half the spinach. Place salmon fillets on top of spinach. Divide remaining shallots evenly between packets. Top each salmon fillet with 2 lemon slices (reserve remaining slices for garnish). Dot with caper butter; season with salt and pepper.
• Fold parchment paper over ingredients, at the crease. Starting with one end of the paper and keeping edges together, make small overlapping pleats the length of the paper, creasing tightly as you go and shaping the edge into an arc. The packet should resemble a half-moon.
• Carefully transfer packets to preheated baking sheet. Bake until packets have puffed, 15 to 18 minutes. Transfer packets to plates. Serve immediately, opening packets at the table. Garnish with remaining lemon slices.
