A Quick, Easy, and Tasty Dinner Idea


One of the biggest challenges is finding the time to cook a healthy, flavorful meal when we have such busy lives.  Here's a quick and easy recipe for fish that's full of flavor, protein, and good healthy fats.  

Baked White Fish
Ingredients:
4-6 oz. fillet of White fish (Cod and Dover Sole workgreat!)
Salt
Pepper
1tsp. Butter per fillet
1 small clove garlic (to taste)

Parchment paper cut into approx. 15x15 inch squares (1 per fillet)
Stapler

Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 deg.  Place each fish fillet on top of a parchment paper square.  Salt and Pepper to taste.  Add a tsp. of butter on top of the fish.  Garlic is optional- either mince into small pieces and sprinkle on fish or cut into bigger slices and place along side the fish in the paper.  The melted butter and juices will simmer the garlic and add a more mild garlic flavor.  
Fold the edges of the paper together, creating a "pouch"around the fillet. Fold the edges down and staple together to keep the juices and flavors in while cooking.
Place on a baking sheet, and in the oven for 15-17 minutes. 

Remove and place the pouches on the plate.  Cut a slit to open, add any other garnish you'd like (like some diced tomatoes pictured above), squeeze some lemon juice over the fish if desired, and enjoy!
