Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound baby bok choy, trimmed and leaves separated
12 ounces cherry tomatoes, halved
1 small shallot, thinly sliced
1 bunch thyme
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
4 boneless, skinless chicken-breast halves (about 6 ounces each), pounded 1/2 inch thick
1/4 cup dry white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees with racks in upper and lower thirds. Cut four 12-by-17-inch pieces of parchment. Fold each in half crosswise to make a crease, then unfold and lay flat. Toss together bok choy leaves, tomatoes, shallot, 1 teaspoon thyme leaves, and oil in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Season chicken with salt and pepper. Dividing evenly, place bok choy mixture on one side of crease on each piece of parchment, then top with chicken and 2 thyme sprigs. Drizzle each with 1 tablespoon wine. Fold parchment over, then make small overlapping pleats to seal and create half-moon-shaped packets.
  • Bake on 2 rimmed baking sheets until chicken is cooked through, 22 minutes. Transfer to plates; serve immediately, carefully cutting packets open with kitchen shears.

Tips for Cooking Fish and Vegetables:

  • Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients. Fresh fish should have a mild, briny smell and bright, clear eyes. Vegetables should be crisp and vibrant in color.
  • Season your food well. Fish and vegetables both benefit from a generous amount of seasoning. Use salt, pepper, herbs, and spices to taste.
  • Don't overcook your fish. Fish is a delicate protein and can easily be overcooked. Cook fish until it is just opaque in the center.
  • Cook your vegetables until they are tender-crisp. Vegetables should have a slight bite to them. Overcooked vegetables are mushy and bland.
  • Use a variety of cooking methods. Fish and vegetables can be cooked in a variety of ways, including grilling, baking, roasting, sautéing, and steaming. Experiment with different methods to find your favorites.
