This particular recipe I found in my 'Cook Like a Rock Star' cookbook that my brother gave me for Christmas. It is to die for if you need a fun way to cook a simple fish and veggies dish. This is also a very healthy meal for those of you that are watching your figure for the New Year.
Ingredients:
Cod or Halibut (either will work and Cod is much easier on the wallet)
Cooking white wine
Salt and Pepper
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 large red onion, sliced in rings
2 zucchini, sliced thinly
2 Roma tomatoes, sliced thinly (you can also use 1 large tomato, but Roma's were on sale this week)
Fresh thyme
1 lemon, sliced thinly (you need about 8 slices)
Aluminum Foil for steaming packets (you can also use parchment paper, but aluminum stays together much easier)
Instructions:
1. Cut all veggies, place in a large bowl, and set aside.
2. Drizzle olive oil on the veggies and let ingredients marry for about 5 minutes.
3. Rip off 4 sections of aluminum foil and place on baking sheet (these will hold your fish and veggies so make sure you rip them big enough so that there is room for all ingredients).
4. Divide veggies up evenly among the 4 sections.
5. Divide up your Cod or Halibut and place on top of the 4 packets of veggies.
6. Place your thinly sliced lemon on top of each of the 4 packets (about 2 slices per packet).
7. Drizzle about 1/4 cup of white cooking wine in the bottom of each packet.
8. Rip off another 4 sheets of aluminum foil (enough to cover and secure the 4 packets you have made.
9. In a 500 degree oven, bake for about 10-12 minutes (or until fish is flaky). The reasoning for the hot temperature oven is to allow the fish to steam properly.
Enjoy! These little packets are so fun to make. I hope that you all enjoy them as much as we did.
