dinner: baked salmon (in foil)

we didn't actually follow *one* recipe for this... more like, skimmed a bunch of online recipes for some tips and came up with what we wanted. an A+R creation.

sliced salmon into fillets
spread some canola oil onto pieces of foil & slipped salmon onto them
smushed up garlic cloves; added salt, olive oil, all-purpose seasoning
smeared this mixture onto the salmon
folded up the foil packets, leaving room to breathe (not really)
cooked at 450F for 20 minutes (thanks, giada)
perfecto!

soft, tender, garlicky, smooth, and not at all overpowering salmon, which we topped with lemon.
with sides of hummus, pita bread, and a salad with olive oil, lemon, & dried mint.
