--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   6      ozs           salmon fillet
   1      tsp           Dijon Glaze
     1/8  c             bell pepper of 3 colors
                        seeds, pits removed and julienne-cut
   1      tsp           fresh lemon juice
     1/8                red onion
                        thinly sliced and separated into rings
   1      12 inch squa  parchment paper

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. with oven rack in center of oven.

Brush fish with glaze or other seasoning and place it in center of
parchment.  Sprinkle lemon juice over the peppers and place them and
onion slices around the fish. Wrap the edges of the paper over the
fish, rolling edges tightly to prevent steam from escaping. Place the
parchment package in an oven-proof pan and bake for 5-8 minutes,
until fish is cooked. Remove from the oven, and prick the parchment
package with a sharp knife to release steam.

NOTES: This is easy and fun to make, and it adds dramatic flare to
dinner. It takes longer to preheat the oven than it does to cook the
fish! To serve, transfer the package onto a preheated plate and let
diners open their own.  Serve with salsa or chutney of your choice.

Yield: 1 serving.
