Halibut In Parchment Paper Recipes

HALIBUT BAKED IN PARCHMENT

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Divide halibut into 4 pieces. Brush with olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• On a baking sheet, place fish in parchment cooking bag or on a large sheet of parchment paper. Scatter green onions and capers over fish. Close bag tightly or wrap up parchment.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes. Fish is done when you can see liquid bubbling in the cooking bag and the parchment is very lightly browned.

HALIBUT IN PARCHMENT PAPER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Toss together the parsley, red onion, zucchini, yellow squash, tomato and salt and pepper.
• Place each halibut filet on a piece of parchment paper and top with vegetable mixture.
• Place 1 tablespoon of butter on top of each.
• Fold halibut in parchment paper and roll edges to seal. Place on a sheet pan and cook for 20 to 25 minutes.

HALIBUT IN PARCHMENT

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Using two 12-by-17-inch sheets parchment paper, fold each sheet in half crosswise.
• Place 1 sheet of parchment flat on a work surface. Place half of the potatoes, garlic, spinach, shallots, and 2 lemon slices on one side of the crease; season with salt and pepper. Place halibut on top of lemon slices, and season with salt and pepper. Fold parchment over ingredients. Make small overlapping folds along the edge to seal.
• Place packets on a baking sheet. Bake until packets have puffed, and fish is cooked through, about 18 minutes. Transfer packets to individual plates. Serve immediately, opening packets at the table. Garnish with any remaining lemon slices.

HALIBUT EN PAPILLOTE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Add the olives, capers, garlic and anchovy to a food processor. Add 1/2 cup olive oil and black pepper to taste. Process to form a silky paste with small pieces of olive and capers remaining, 15 to 20 seconds. Drizzle in more olive oil as needed. Remove the tapenade from the carafe, then drizzle with olive oil and set aside.
• Drizzle the center of each of 4 large circles of parchment paper with some olive oil, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Top each piece with a thin layer of fennel and some leeks. Top each with a dollop of the olive tapenade and 2 to 3 lemon slices. Lay the fish on top of the lemon slices and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Fold the parchment in half to cover the fish, then crimp the edges shut, being sure to cover the corner of each previous fold. When you are halfway through folding, add 1 tablespoon of white wine to each packet, then continue to fold until the entire package is formed and closed. Place each packet on a baking sheet.
• Bake the fish for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven, then place each packet on a plate. Cut open the top of the paper to expose the fish. Garnish each fillet with the Calabrian chiles and basil. Serve immediately.

HERB-ROASTED FISH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Place the fish fillet on a piece of parchment paper and sprinkle it with the salt and pepper. Drizzle the lemon juice and olive oil over the top of the fillet. Lay the thyme on top and place the olives next to the fillet.
• Beat the egg together with 1 tablespoon of water for an egg wash. Brush the egg wash around the edge of the parchment paper and fold it in half. Carefully fold the edge of the parchment paper under and around the fish to make a package. Place the package on a sheet pan and cook for 12 to 15 minutes, until the fish is cooked through. Serve hot in the parchment paper.

HALIBUT IN PARCHMENT

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Divide cabbage and carrot among four 16-inch-long pieces of parchment. Top with fish, cilantro, and ginger and season with salt. Drizzle with oil and vinegar.
• Bring long ends of paper together and fold 3 times to make a seam. Tuck short ends under to secure.
• Place packets on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until puffed and fish is opaque, 13 to 15 minutes. Transfer packets to plates, gently pull open, and serve immediately.

HALIBUT IN PAPER WITH YUMMY SUMMER VEG

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500°F.
• Fold four 9 x 13-inch pieces of parchment paper in half. Starting at the top of the fold, cut each piece into a large half heart shape (takes you back to Valentine's Day in school, doesn't it?). When the papers are opened, they should be the shape of full hearts. If they're not perfect, that's okay, but a big heart is always better.
• In a large bowl, combine the zucchini, haricots verts, tomatoes, onion, garlic, and red pepper. Toss with olive oil and season with the thyme and salt. Oil and salt the halibut as well. This is the only chance to season the veggies and the fish, so take advantage of it! Taste the veggies; they should taste good. If not, adjust the seasoning.
• Open the parchment paper hearts and brush the paper with olive oil, leaving a 1-inch border.
• Divide the seasoned veggies evenly between the parchment hearts, then lay the fish on top and place two lemon slices on top of each fillet. Close the paper in half over the fish. Working from one end of the parchment to the other, fold the bottom of the paper over the top to create a closure. The seal needs to be really secure so the steam won't escape during the cooking process. Before the package is completely sealed, carefully pour an equal amount of wine into each and complete the enclosure. Put the packages on a baking sheet and cook for 8 to 9 minutes.
• Remove the packages from the oven and place each one on a serving dish. Give each diner the chance to slice open their own package so they can enjoy the burst of aromatic steam that will be released-it's like a fish facial!
• Parchment is traditional here, but you can use aluminum foil to wrap your fish and it will work just fine-even easier to seal!
