Instruc­tions

1. Pre­heat oven to 350 degrees Fahren­heit. Remove the skin of the salmon. Peel the clemen­tines (Remove seeds if not seed­less).
2. Place 4 sheets of parch­ment paper of equal size on top of each oth­er.

   
3. In the mid­dle of the top sheet, place one salmon fil­let wrapped in bacon. Place the slices of one clemen­tine around it. Sea­son with gar­lic pow­der, salt and pep­per. Squeeze a lit­tle bit of lemon juice on top, and add 1 branch of fresh dill. Driz­zle with olive oil. Repeat with all oth­er salmon fil­lets. Each salmon fil­let should be placed on top of 4 sheets of parch­ment paper in the mid­dle of the top sheet, because they will each be wrapped indi­vid­u­al­ly.

   
4. Now wrap each salmon fil­let with the sheets of parch­ment paper it sits on, as if you were mak­ing a tight­ly wrapped present (see pic­ture). These are your papil­lotes. You should have 4 of them.

   
5. Bake the papil­lotes in the oven for 30 minutes.The papil­lotes should be opened at the table when you are ready to eat. Enjoy!
