Time 4h55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 stick unsalted butter, softened
1 tablespoon basil pesto
7 sheets parchment paper
2 medium red potatoes, cut into thin strips
1 yellow squash, cut into thin strips
1 yellow onion, diced
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 tilapia fillets
1 pinch sea salt and ground black pepper to taste
6 tablespoons white wine

Steps:

  • Mix butter and basil together until evenly combined. Spoon onto a piece of parchment paper and roll up tightly into a log. Refrigerate until firm, at least 4 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Mix potatoes, squash, and onion together.
  • Cut each parchment paper sheet into a 15-inch square. Fold in half and trim edges to make a semi-circle. Unfold and place a handful of mixed vegetables on one half of each circle.
  • Drizzle 1 teaspoon olive oil over each tilapia fillet; season with salt and pepper. Position fillets over the vegetables and season with more salt and pepper. Place a couple slices of pesto butter and 1 tablespoon white wine over each fillet.
  • Fold empty half of parchment paper over the tilapia and vegetables, like a quesadilla. Twist the edges of the semi-circle to seal. Transfer to a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until tilapia flakes easily with a fork, about 20 minutes. Open parchment paper carefully and serve.

My friend got this recipe off of Epicurious where it is touted as Tori Amos' favorite recipe. It is certainly popular with our husbands. It has a spicy sweetness to it. We live in too small of a town to find banana leaves so it is parchment paper for us. Coconut rice.makes a nice accompaniment.
