SWORDFISH BAKED IN FOIL WITH MEDITERRANEAN FLAVORS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Take an 18-inch piece of aluminum foil and fold it in half crosswise. Fold a 1-inch strip on each side over twice, once to close and once to seal; you should now have a pouch. Repeat for 3 more pouches. Season the fillets with salt and pepper and place 1 into each pouch. Add 1/4 of the artichoke mixture to each pouch. Fold over a 1-inch strip of the top twice to seal. Place the packets onto a sheet pan and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, depending on the thickness of your fish. Carefully open the pouches and place the fish and vegetables onto warm plates. Spoon any juices that have accumulated over the fish. Serve immediately.

SOLE JUDIC (BAKED SOLE WRAPPED IN LETTUCE)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
• Remove the lettuce leaves from the core and drop them into a large quantity of boiling water. Let simmer about two minutes, drain in a colander and let cold water run over the leaves until they are thoroughly chilled. Drain well.
• Open up the leaves on a flat surface.
• Sprinkle the fillets with salt and pepper. Fold the fillets into thirds to make flat packets. Place each packet on an opened lettuce leaf. Cover with a second lettuce leaf and fold the edges of the leaves up and over to enclose the fish.
• Rub a baking dish large enough to hold the fish in one layer with two tablespoons of the butter. Sprinkle the bottom with shallots. Arrange the lettuce-wrapped packages in the dish and pour in the wine. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bring the wine to a boil on top of the stove.
• Place in the oven and bake 10 minutes.
• Pour the liquid from the baking dish into a saucepan. Bring to a boil. Cook down over high heat to about one-third cup. Add the cream, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil.
• Meanwhile transfer the packages to a serving dish and keep warm. As liquid accumulates around the packages, pour it into the sauce. Cook the sauce over high heat, stirring often, until reduced to slightly less than one cup. Swirl in the remaining three tablespoons of butter and the lemon juice. Heat briefly and pour the sauce over the fish packages. If desired, strain the sauce before reheating and pouring over the fish packages.
