Ingredients

6 - 8 oz filet of fish. Salmon, cod, halibut, sea bass, and tilapia all work well.
vegetables, sliced. Asparagus, zucchini, bell peppers, etc. Keep it simple!

Directions

1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
2

Cut and fold a piece of parchment paper - about 15x15 inches in size - in half and lay it down on a rimmed baking sheet. Open it flat.
3

On one fold of the parchment, put your thin sliced vegetables down, largest on the bottom. Top your veggies with a bit of butter. Add your herbs, and top it with a little salt and pepper.
4

Place your fish of choice on top of your veggies. Put a bit more butter on top of your fish. Sprinkle it again with a little salt and pepper, and top it with the thin slices of citrus.
5

Fold the top closed like a book, and pleat the edges of the parchment to make a neat, tight half-moon shaped packet.
6

Bake the packet for 15 - 20 minutes, or until the fish is opaque all the way through.
