Directions

  1. Sprinkle salmon with lemon juice, salt, and pepper.

  2. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion and green bell pepper, cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, stir. Add tomatoes, cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in parsley, tarragon, dill, cilantro, and mint. Add cayenne pepper and sugar, season with salt and pepper. Stir in avocado.

  3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  4. Pour remaining 2 tablespoons oil into a bowl. Place 1 sheet of phyllo dough on a cutting board, brush with oil and cover with a second sheet. Place salmon on top of pastry, toward the bottom edge. Top with 1 to 2 spoonfuls of the tomato-herb sauce, spreading evenly. Roll the pastry over the salmon, seal edges. Place on a baking sheet.
