Salmon and Sweet Potatoes

Clean up is a breeze with this meal--just wrap seasoned sweet potatoes, onion and salmon in foil then bake until tender.

Ingredients

* 4 5 ounce fresh or frozen skinless salmon fillets
* 2 medium sweet potatoes, scrubbed and cut into 1/8 inch slices
* 1 small yellow onion, diced
* 2 teaspoons cooking oil
* Cooking spray
* 1/2 teaspoon dried crushed oregano
* 1/2 teaspoon ground chili powder
* 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
* 1/4 teaspoon salt
* 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
* 1 medium orange, peeled and coarsely chopped

Method

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Rinse fish and pat dry with paper towels then set aside. In a medium bowl, toss sweet potato slices and diced onion with oil. In a small bowl, combine oregano, chili pepper, cumin, salt and black pepper. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of oregano mixture evenly on salmon. Add remaining oregano mixture to sweet potatoes and onion then toss to coat. Lightly coat one side each of four 18 inch squares of foil with cooking spray. On each square, arrange 1/4 of sweet potato slices, diced onion, and place on top of filet. Add orange pieces. Fold ends of foil squares to completely enclose, leaving space for steam to build. Place seam sides up on a large baking sheet. Bake 30-35 minutes, or until fish flakes easily, and potatoes are soft.
