Ingredients:
- (1) 6-8 oz lean white fish fillet such as orange roughy, pompano, turbot
or sole
- Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
- 1 tsp grated lemon rind
- 1.5 Tbsp chopped fresh chives or green onion tops
Directions:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Cut parchment paper or aluminum foil into
a "heart" about 12 inches long and 10 inches wide at the widest
point. (Paper should be at least 3 inches longer than the fish). Butter the
paper (the foil does not need to be greased). Place a fillet on one side of
the heart. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, lemon zest and chopped chives. Fold
over paper and seal. Place on an ungreased baking sheet and bake for 10 minutes
per inch of fish thickness (6-8 minutes).
Cut cases open by making an "X" in the top of each; fold back paper.
Serve immediately.
