Categories     main-dish

Time 27m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup sugar snap peas, blanched for 10 seconds
2 boneless pieces of halibut (6 to 8 ounces each), 3/4-inch thick
Extra virgin olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon
4 small vine ripened tomatoes, halved
Basil leaves cut with scissors

Steps:

  • Tear off 2 large pieces of plastic wrap (the type which is designed to use in the microwave oven); each one should be large enough to enclose the fish and vegetables in a single layer.
  • Rub lemon juice on both sides of halibut. Layer half cup of snow peas on bottom of plastic wrap and drizzle with a teaspoon of olive oil. Place fish over that and bring up plastic wrap to totally enclose the fish.
  • Set a cake rack over simmering water in a deep skillet. Turn fish packages upside down so snow peas are on top. Layer them on the cake rack and cover with a round bowl or cover to entrap steam. Cook for 5 minutes or until fish and vegetables are cooked through.
  • While fish is steaming, tomato seeds with a spoon and cut them into a fine dice; toss with dice with a bit of olive oil, salt and pepper and spoon the tomatoes on dinner plates.
  • When fish is done, with scissors, carefully open package (watch out for your hands). Pose fish and vegetables over tomatoes and drizzle juices over the top; season with salt and pepper and garnish top with basil.

This recipe was a great way to cook fish and vegetables. The fish was cooked evenly and the vegetables were tender-crisp. I will definitely be making this again.

Overall, this recipe was a success. The fish was cooked evenly and the vegetables were tender. The only thing I would change is to add a bit more seasoning to the fish.

This dish was a delight! The fish was cooked perfectly, and the vegetables were crisp and flavorful. The parchment paper really helped to lock in the moisture, and the result was a delicious and healthy meal.
