Cooking
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. While the oven is heating prepare the topping and set aside.
For the Olive Topping:

For the Salmon:
Sprinkle salmon with 2 teaspoons olive oil, salt, and pepper
Place a salmon fillet oiled side down on top of a sheet of foil or parchment paper
Spoon one quarter of the tomato mixture over the salmon
Fold the sides of the foil or paper to form a tented pouch and then fold over the ends of the ‘pouch’ to seal closed and repeat with remaining fillets
Place the 4 foil pouches on a heavy duty large baking sheet
Bake until the salmon is just cooked through, about 25 minutes.
Place pouches on plates and serve immediately upon removing from oven.
