Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound small Yukon gold potatoes, sliced about inch thick
1 small onion, sliced
1 clove garlic, minced
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Kosher salt
4 skinless center-cut wild cod fillets (about 6 ounces each)
1/4 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest, plus 2 tablespoons lemon juice
Freshly ground pepper
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
1/4 cup pitted kalamata olives, coarsely chopped
1 15-ounce can cherry tomatoes
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Toss the potatoes, onion and garlic with 1 tablespoon olive oil, the red pepper flakes and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a bowl. Put the cod on a plate; drizzle with the lemon juice and season with salt, pepper and the thyme.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Tear off four 16-inch sheets of parchment paper. Make the packets (see photo gallery): Arrange about one-quarter of the potato mixture on one sheet of parchment; top with a cod fillet and about one-quarter each of the olives and tomatoes (along with some liquid from the can). Drizzle with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil. Seal as directed. Repeat to make 3 more packets; divide between 2 baking sheets.
  • Transfer to the oven and bake until the parchment puffs and the liquid is bubbling, about 25 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes before opening.
  • Meanwhile, mix the butter, chives, lemon zest and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Carefully open the packets; top with the chive butter.

I'm not a huge fan of cod, but I tried this recipe anyway and I was pleasantly surprised. The fish was moist and flaky and the flavors were delicious.

I made this dish last night and it was a hit! My family loved it. The only thing I changed was that I used tilapia instead of cod because that's what I had on hand. It was still delicious.
