FISH EN PAPILLOTE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200˚C (400˚F)
• Add all the rice ingredients in a small saucepan.
• Bring to a boil, then turn down to a very low simmer before covering with a tight-fitting lid.
• Cook for 15 minutes. While the rice is simmering, prepare the fish.
• Take 2 large sheets of baking paper, about 20-30 cm (8-12 inches). Fold in half and cut out a heart shape.
• Place a piece of fish on the 1 side of the heart, top with half of the coriander stalks and half of the red onions.
• Fold the paper in half and double fold all round to seal in the fish, a bit like a pasty.
• Place on a baking tray and bake in the oven for 8 minutes. Once the fish is in the oven remove the rice from the heat and set aside for 5 minutes more. This will further steam the rice, making it soft and sticky.
• Meanwhile prepare the dressing. Combine all the ingredients for the dressing, mix well.
• Serve with salads or seasonal vegetables.
• Enjoy!

FISH EN PAPILLOTE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees, F.
• Fold each square of parchment in half and cut out a heart shape. (You have all done this before-in school when you made Valentine cards.).
• Open each heart and brush lightly with extra virgin olive oil or spray with olive oil spray.
• Sprinkle both sides of fish with salt and pepper; set aside.
• Wash asparagus and break off and discard the woody ends.
• Lightly spray olive oil on the asparagus and toss with a pinch of kosher salt and pepper and the lemon zest.
• Divide the asparagus in half; put half of the asparagus on each of the hearts, just to one side of the center of each heart.
• Put one piece of fish on top of each bundle of asparagus.
• Top with one sprig of dill (or half of the dried dill), a slice of lemon and either ½ of the butter or a light drizzle of olive oil.
• Splash half the wine on top of each piece of fish.
• Now, to wrap up these packets: fold the top of the heart over the fish and asparagus.
• At the top end of the heart, away from the point, fold up both edges (top and bottom) and crease well.
• Move down about ½ inch and fold up the edges, overlapping your first fold. Continue folding and creasing all around the parchment heart until you get to the point.
• Fold and crease the point twice.
• You now have successfully wrapped your fish en papillote--yeah!
• Place the packets side by side on a baking sheet, making sure the packets aren't touching.
• Bake in the center of the oven until the packets are well puffed and the fish is cooked, about 10-12 minutes.
• To serve, put a packet on your sweetheart's plate, place in front of her, and with a dramatic flourish and a "watch out for the steam," carefully slice the packet open with a sharp knife.
• You watch out, too-the steam will be very hot.

FISH EN PAPILLOTE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a bowl, mix together the onion, zucchini, carrot and garlic. Adds the oil, season with salt and pepper, to taste, and toss to combine. Put each fish fillet in a large square of parchment paper and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Arrange the vegetables on top, dividing evenly. Top the vegetables with 2 lemon slices, 2 sprigs thyme, a pat of butter and 1 tablespoon white wine, layering in order. Fold the parchment paper around the edges tightly in 1/4-inch folds to create a half moon shape. Make sure you press as you crimp and fold to seal the packets well, otherwise the steam will escape. Arrange the packets on a baking sheet. Bake until the fish is cooked through, about 12 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish. To serve, cut open the packets and serve directly in the parchment on a plate or remove the fish to the plate using a spatula, being sure you don't leave the juices behind.
