Hi Everyone! I’m a newbie over here at Eazy Peazy Mealz. My name is Karissa Martindale and I blog over at OCD Kitchen. I’m a bit of a quirky cook who loves real food made easy, bonus points if I can trick others into thinking I spent hours in my kitchen cooking for them. I’ll be joining Eazy Peazy Mealz for the next few months and I couldn’t be more excited to share my style of easy meals with you!

Today I’ve got an visually breathtaking spin on fish en papillote. Fish en papillote means fish cooked in parchment, sounds fancy doesn’t it? This is a great dish for a date night with your special someone or even events like birthdays or mothers day. When they open up their personal parchment packet and that flavorful steam greets their nose, that’s love.

This is a great dish to be served on it’s own which makes meal prep a breeze. If you do feel the need to serve a fresh crunchy side I love to pair with this Cucumber and Carrot Slaw. The baked fish with the crispy slaw makes a nice flavor balance in your meal. Or you could start with a soup as an appetizer, try this “Instant” Noodle Soup.

Look how pretty this dish is before it even hits the oven.

Folding up the packets might be the “hardest” part of this recipe. With a little bit of patience you will be able to get a good seal on your packets so that the steam will help cook the fish in the oven.

  • Tear two roughly 18’x13′ pieces of parchment paper. Fold in half lengthwise to create a crease, and open.
  • Take one piece of parchment, close to the right side of the crease place ingredients
  • Close the parchment around the fish like a book. Starting from bottom creased corner make 1/4′ pleats sealing up the parchment in a half circle shape.

When serving up your fish you can place the whole packets on a plate and cut a slit in the top to open right at the table. Tell me that doesn’t make a statement, something like “Oh yea, she definitely worked hard on this one.” While you know the truth… you binge watched your favorite show most of the afternoon. I won’t tell if you don’t.

The other great part about this recipe, minimal cleanup. Simply throw away the parchment and you have one baking sheet to wash, which makes for a magical night in my eyes. Wouldn’t you say so?
