Fish and Vegetables with Pesto Baked in Foil Packets image

Provided by Judy Harmon

Categories     Fish     Tomato     Vegetable     Bake     Dinner     Seafood     Snapper     Asparagus     Squash     Winter     Bon Appétit     Georgia

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2/3 cup purchased pesto
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
4 5- to 6-ounce red snapper or orange roughy fillets
16 asparagus spears, each trimmed to 4-inch length
10 ounces plum tomatoes, coarsely chopped
2 yellow crookneck squash, thinly sliced on diagonal

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Blend pesto, lemon juice and hot pepper sauce in small bowl. Arrange four 12x12-inch pieces of heavy-duty foil on work surface. Place 1 fish fillet in center of each. Sprinkle fish lightly with salt and pepper. Spread each fillet with 1 tablespoon pesto mixture. Top each fillet with asparagus, tomatoes and squash, then dollop with remaining pesto mixture. Fold sides of foil over fish and vegetables, covering completely; seal packets closed.
  • Using long spatula, transfer foil packets to large baking sheet. Bake until fish is just opaque in center and vegetables are crisp-tender, about 25 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right fish: Use firm-fleshed fish like salmon, cod, or tilapia. These fishes hold up well in foil packets and won't fall apart during cooking.
  • Prep the vegetables: Cut the vegetables into uniform pieces so that they cook evenly. Vegetables like bell peppers, onions, and zucchini are great choices.
  • Season the fish and vegetables: Use a combination of herbs, spices, and citrus to flavor the fish and vegetables. Lemon, dill, and garlic are popular choices.
  • Wrap the packets tightly: Fold the foil packets tightly around the fish and vegetables to create a seal. This will help to keep the moisture in and the flavors from escaping.
  • Cook the packets over medium heat: Place the foil packets on a preheated grill or in a preheated oven. Cook the packets for the recommended time, or until the fish is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.

Conclusion:

Fish and vegetable foil packets are a healthy and delicious way to cook a meal. They are easy to prepare and can be cooked on a grill or in an oven. With a little planning, you can create a variety of flavorful and nutritious meals using this cooking method.
