Red Snapper Cooked En Papillote With Julienned Vegetables Recipes

RED SNAPPER EN PAPILLOTE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425ºF. Using parchment papers as needed (1 fish fillet = 1 paper/2 fish fillet = 2 papers) cut into 24-inch long, fold in half and crease firmly. Cut into a heart shaped pattern finishing with a pointy end; oil both sides of papers.
• Place fillets on one side of the center crease; add vegetables of your choice as well as seasonings. I like to use about 1 tbsp. of white wine. Just keep in mind about certain vegetables that take more than 15 minutes to cook i.e. potatoes. In that case, precook or blanch them depending of the kind you choose.
• Fold one side over fish/vegetables and starting from the round, crimp paper tightly to about ½ to 1-inch long. When arriving to pointy end, fold it underneath. Place pouched on a baking sheet and transfer to preheated oven; bake for 15 minutes. Serve immediately.

RED SNAPPER PAPILLOTES WITH LEMON AND THYME

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500°F. and heat a baking sheet in lower third of oven 5 minutes.
• Fold each sheet of foil in half crosswise to crease, and then unfold.
• On a plate coat red snapper fillets with oil and sprinkle with pepper and salt to taste. On each sheet of foil put 1 fillet to one side of crease and sprinkle with 2 teaspoon lemon juice, 1/4 teaspoon thyme, and half of any oil remaining on plate. Top each fillet with 3 lemon slices.
• Working with 1 foil package (papillote) at a time, fold left half of foil over fillet. Starting at 1 corner of crease, fold edge of foil over in triangles, following a semicircular oath around fillet (each fold should overlap previous one), smoothing out folds as you go and tucking last ford under, until papillote is completely sealed. Put papillotes on hot baking sheet and bake in middle of oven 5 minutes.
• Serve papillotes with couscous.

RED SNAPPER EN PAPILLOTE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Place two baking sheets in oven. Combine capers, peppercorns, dill seed, and lemon juice in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Fold four 24-inch pieces of parchment piece in half crosswise, cut each into a half-heart shape, and open. Divide fennel evenly among the parchments, forming a bed on one side of the heart. Sprinkle each serving with a tablespoon of caper mixture, and season with salt. Place a snapper fillet on each bed of fennel; season with salt, and top each packet with remaining caper mixture and 2 lemon slices. Fold parchment over the ingredients, making small overlapping folds along the edge to seal.
• Using a large spatula, place packets on heated baking sheets. Bake until the packets have puffed and the fish is cooked, 15 to 18 minutes. Transfer packets to individual plates. Serve immediately.
