Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- In a bowl, mix together the onion, zucchini, carrot and garlic. Adds the oil, season with salt and pepper, to taste, and toss to combine. Put each fish fillet in a large square of parchment paper and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Arrange the vegetables on top, dividing evenly. Top the vegetables with 2 lemon slices, 2 sprigs thyme, a pat of butter and 1 tablespoon white wine, layering in order. Fold the parchment paper around the edges tightly in 1/4-inch folds to create a half moon shape. Make sure you press as you crimp and fold to seal the packets well, otherwise the steam will escape. Arrange the packets on a baking sheet. Bake until the fish is cooked through, about 12 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish. To serve, cut open the packets and serve directly in the parchment on a plate or remove the fish to the plate using a spatula, being sure you don't leave the juices behind.
SIMPLE BAKED FISH IN FOIL WW
This is so simple, I can't believe I couldn't find it anywhere on zaar. The onion keeps the fish from drying out and gives a lovely mild flavor. We especially like Telipia, but any white fish can be used, as well as any of your favorite fish seasonings. We like lemon pepper or Dominant One (an all seasoning mix from hubby's Indiana hometown spice factory www.marionkay.com). Fresh fish from a camping trip is good also, in fact this method is great for outdoors, as it can be cooked on the grill for 20 min, clean up is a snap, just toss the foil.

FISH IN FOIL
The 'no smell' fish recipe that is the ONLY one I make for my family (I hate fish, they LOVE it!). Take foil packets to table for service, and keep them around for the discarding of bones and skin. Then when dinner's done, haul those babies to the outside trash.

- Use a sturdy parchment paper or aluminum foil: Make sure the paper or foil is large enough to wrap the fish completely. You can also use a baking bag if you prefer.
- Season the fish well: Before wrapping the fish, season it with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices. You can also add herbs, citrus zest, or a drizzle of olive oil.
- Fold the parchment paper or foil securely: Fold the paper or foil tightly around the fish, making sure to seal all of the edges. This will help to keep the fish moist and flavorful.
- Cook the fish at the right temperature: The cooking time will vary depending on the type of fish and the thickness of the fillets. Cook the fish until it is opaque and flaky, but not overcooked.
