Stir in the olives, 1 tablespoon lemon juice and 2 teaspoons parsley. Spoon onto the center of a large piece of heavy-duty foil (about 18 in. x 12 in.). , Place cod over vegetables; sprinkle with remaining lemon juice and parsley.

COD AND VEGETABLES BAKED IN FOIL

Steps:

• Rinse the fish and pat dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper on both sides. Rinse the broccoli and divide into florets. Peel the carrot and cut into sticks. Rinse, trim and cut the scallions in half lengthwise. Rinse the mushrooms and cut into quarters.
• Rinse the parsley, shake dry and chop the leaves. Rinse the lemon in hot water, wipe dry and peel with a vegetable peeler. Cut the lemon peel into thin strips and then juice half of the lemon.
• Preheat the oven to 200°C (approximately 400°F) on the convection setting. Spread 4 large pieces of aluminum foil on the work surface and arrange the vegetables on them. Season with salt and pepper. Place the fish on the vegetables, sprinkle with the lemon peel, drizzle with white wine and lemon juice and sprinkle with parsley.
• Close the aluminum foil around the fish and the vegetables, place on a baking sheet and bake for about 35 minutes. Serve immediately.

COD BAKED IN FOIL - BITTMAN

Steps:

• Put a baking dish in the oven and preheat it to 400 degrees.
• Take 8 sheets of foil, each about 18 inches long. Placed one piece on top of the other, making 4 packages.
• Generously rub the fish with some of the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper; put it on a piece of foil. Sprinkle with garlic and parsley (or basil). Fold the foil onto itself, crimping the edges as tightly as possible. Repeat. You can chill the packages until ready to cook, but no longer than 6 hours.
• Put the pkgs in the baking dish. Bake for about 15 minutes (or about 8 minutes from the time it starts sizzling). Let sit for couple of minutes before carefully slitting open the package.
• Spoon out fish and serve with lemon.
• VARIATION 1: Add any or all of the following to each package: 1 seeded and diced plum tomato, a few black olives, some capers, some very thinly sliced onion.
• VARIATION 2: If you don't want to mess with the foil, put it all in a covered baking dish (like Corningware). Bake at 350 to 400 degrees until cooked through. (The point of a thin knife inserted into the thickest part meets little resistance.) It would be 10-15 minutes.
