Save energy by cooking salmon in the dishwasher while you clean your dishes. Not only is it a sustainable way to cook, but it also makes a deliciously flaky and moist fish.
Rinse and dry the zucchini and red pepper. Remove the seeds and stem from the red pepper. Dice the vegetables and add them to the bottom of 2 canning jars. Sprinkle them with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Prepare the fish by seasoning it with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and dill. Place it over the vegetables in the jar.
Add 1 Tbsp. of butter to each jar, over the fish. Add any other desired seasonings.
Seal the jars shut. If you are worried about the air-tightness of your lid, cover the sealed jar with a sheet of aluminum foil.
Place the jars in the dishwasher and run a normal cycle.
When the cycle has finished (or towards the end of the dry cycle), remove the jars from the dishwasher.
Remove the aluminum foil, if used, and open the jars. You can eat the fish and vegetables directly from the jars or move them to a plate. Enjoy!

Notes
You can use fresh garlic instead of the garlic powder, but keep in mind that the minced garlic doesn't cook for long enough to become milder in flavor. It, instead, remains quite strong in flavor which is why I suggested using garlic powder. Do not use quick or light dishwasher cycles.You can cook the fish with other vegetables instead.Other foods that cook well in the dishwasher include most vegetables, fish and seafood, couscous and other pasta dishes, etc.
