Clam Chorizo And Kale Parchment Pack Recipes

GINGER-SCALLION CHICKEN PARCHMENT PACK

Steps:

• Position 2 racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. Cut four 16-inch long sheets of parchment paper. Fold each sheet in half and open like a book. Divide the pieces of parchment between 2 baking sheets (2 pieces per sheet).
• Trim away the tendon attached to the thicker part of the tenderloin with kitchen shears and discard. Sprinkle the chicken all over with 3/4 teaspoon salt.
• Combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, sambal, scallion whites, ginger, and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl. Place snow peas and shiitakes in a medium bowl and toss with 2 tablespoons of the soy sauce mixture.
• Mound 3/4 cup brown rice on each parchment sheet, placing it on one side of the fold, and drizzle with 1 tablespoon water. Top with the vegetables, and two chicken tenders per serving, tucking as many of the vegetables as possible under the chicken. Spoon about 2 teaspoons of the soy sauce mixture evenly over each serving of chicken. (You should have some left over for drizzling later.)
• Fold over the top half of the parchment, crimping and overlapping small folds along the open edge to seal tightly. Bake until the parchment puffs, 18 minutes; chicken will be cooked through. Transfer the packets to plates and let stand 2 minutes. Avoiding the hot steam, carefully cut open the packets. Drizzle remaining soy sauce mixture over the chicken and rice. Top with scallion greens, cilantro, and sesame seeds.

COD WITH TOMATO-BASIL SALSA PARCHMENT PACK

Steps:

• Position 2 racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.
• Combine the tomatoes, capers, 3 tablespoons of the olive oil, lemon zest and juice, shallot, basil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and a few grinds of black pepper in a medium bowl. Set aside to let the flavors develop.
• Cut four 16-inch long sheets of parchment paper. Fold each sheet in half and open it like a book. Divide the pieces of parchment between 2 baking sheets (2 pieces per sheet).
• Toss the corn and green beans with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and a few grinds of black pepper in a bowl. Divide between the 4 parchment sheets, mounding the mixture on one side of the fold. Sprinkle each cod fillet with 1/4 teaspoon salt and place on top of a vegetable mound. Dot with butter and drizzle with wine.
• Fold over the top half of the parchment, crimping and overlapping small folds along the open edge to seal tightly. Bake until the parchment puffs, about 15 minutes; the fish will be tender and cooked through. Transfer the packs to plates. Avoiding the hot steam, carefully cut open the pack. Spoon the reserved tomato-basil salsa with juices over each fillet and serve immediately.
