Parchment Cooked Fish With Morels Spring Garlic And Thyme Recipes

FISH COOKED IN PARCHMENT (PESCE AL CARTOCCIO)

Steps:

• Make sure the cavity of the fish is very well cleaned. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Place a large sheet of parchment paper skin-side up on a board and sprinkle it with salt, pepper and some of the rosemary leaves. Place the fish on the parchment paper.
• Cut the cloves of garlic into small pieces. Into the cavity of the fish put half of the remaining rosemary leaves, half of the garlic pieces, salt and pepper. Sprinkle the outside of the fish with the remaining rosemary eaves, garlic and more salt and pepper.
• Wrap the fish completely in the parchment paper and place it in a baking pan, then place in the preheated oven for 17 minutes. Gently turn the fish over and bake for 17 minutes more, then remove the pan from oven and let the fish cool for 5 minutes.
• Serve hot with lemon wedges.

TILAPIA PARCHMENT PACKETS

Steps:

• Mix butter and basil together until evenly combined. Spoon onto a piece of parchment paper and roll up tightly into a log. Refrigerate until firm, at least 4 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Mix potatoes, squash, and onion together.
• Cut each parchment paper sheet into a 15-inch square. Fold in half and trim edges to make a semi-circle. Unfold and place a handful of mixed vegetables on one half of each circle.
• Drizzle 1 teaspoon olive oil over each tilapia fillet; season with salt and pepper. Position fillets over the vegetables and season with more salt and pepper. Place a couple slices of pesto butter and 1 tablespoon white wine over each fillet.
• Fold empty half of parchment paper over the tilapia and vegetables, like a quesadilla. Twist the edges of the semi-circle to seal. Transfer to a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until tilapia flakes easily with a fork, about 20 minutes. Open parchment paper carefully and serve.
