How to Make Baked Lemon Pepper Salmon

1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Place a large sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil on a baking sheet.
3. Lightly spray the foil with vegetable oil spray.
4. In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons finely chopped shallots, 1 tablespoon capers (drained), and 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped.
5. Place the salmon fillet (approximately 6 ounces) on the prepared foil.
6. Generously sprinkle both sides of the salmon with lemon pepper seasoning.
7. Evenly spread the shallot mixture over the top of the salmon.
8. Dot the salmon with 1 tablespoon of butter.
9. Carefully fold up the foil edges to completely enclose the salmon, creating a sealed packet.
10. Bake for 28 minutes, or until the salmon is opaque in the center and flakes easily with a fork.
11. Carefully open the foil packet (be cautious of steam).
12. Transfer the salmon to a serving platter.
