FISH IN FOIL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Rinse fish, and pat dry.
• Rub fillets with olive oil, and season with garlic salt and black pepper. Place each fillet on a large sheet of aluminum foil. Top with jalapeno slices, and squeeze the juice from the ends of the lemons over the fish. Arrange lemon slices on top of fillets. Carefully seal all edges of the foil to form enclosed packets. Place packets on baking sheet.
• Bake in preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, depending on the size of fish. Fish is done when it flakes easily with a fork.

FOIL BAKED FISH

Steps:

• Cut six squares of aluminium foil, as to make an envelope with them.
• Pour a little olive oil over each square of foil. (about 1 Tbsp).
• Put the fish over the oiled foil, add salt and pepper.
• Place the onion, tomato, cilantro, celery, chile, and then place lemon slices over the fish. Finally squeeze some lemon juice over it.
• Close the foil, and repeat for each fillet.
• Place the foil envelopes over a steamer during 20 minutes or until the fish flakes easily, and serve.
• I love to serve it with brown rice!

FOIL-WRAPPED FISH

Steps:

• Arrange each fish fillet in the center of a length of aluminum foil or parchment paper. Top each fillet with half the remaining ingredients. Fold foil over each fillet, sealing edges very tightly. Place packages on a baking sheet; bake at 450 degrees for 15-20 minutes. Open packages carefully, watch out for the steam; fish is done when it flakes and vegetables are tender.

LUCY'S BAKED FISH IN FOIL

Steps:

• Make 2-3 deep slashes on both sides of the fish and lay out a double layer of foil.
• Combine coconut cream, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, chili powder and lemon juice.
• Spread 1/3 of the coconut cream mixture on the foil and lay the (cleaned) fish on top of the coconut cream mixture.
• Spread some of the coconut cream mixture inside the cavity of the fish and pour the rest of the coconut cream mixture over the fish and seal parcel making sure there is no air around the fish.
• Bake at 180°C for 12- 15 minutes per 500 grams or until the fish flakes at the thickest part- only way to tell is to open the package every now and then.
• Remove from oven and leave to stand for approximately ten minutes, or until cool enough to handle.
• Discard the head, tail and fins; then peel away skin.
• Flake the fish onto a clean piece of foil and pour any cooking juices over the flesh.
• Check seasoning and add salt and pepper if needed.
• Serve with fresh bread and a green leafy salad.
