Best 4 Steamed Fish And Vegetables In Stove Top Papillotte Recipes

FISH EN PAPILLOTE

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.

STEAMED FISH EN PAPILLOTE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly season fish on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Cut four pieces of parchment paper, each measuring 12 by 17 inches, and lay them on a clean work surface. Fold each in half crosswise, then open and lay flat.
• Divide spinach leaves among parchment, mounding on one side of the fold. Divide butter in half, then divide one of the halves among the four papers, spooning it on top of spinach; top each with 2 lemon slices. Lay a fillet on top of the lemons and spoon remaining butter on fish. Fold over parchment and form a half-moon packet, beginning at one corner; make small overlapping pleats all the way around to seal the edges completely.
• Transfer packets to a rimmed baking sheet and cook until parchment puffs up, about 12 minutes (8 minutes per inch of thickness for firm-fleshed fish).
• Immediately place a packet on each of four plates and use kitchen shears to cut open the packets at the table. Serve with lemon wedges.

SALMON EN PAPILLOTE (SALMON IN PARCHMENT)

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Cut 4 large heart-shaped pieces of parchment paper or foil, and place them on a sheet pan. Fold the parchment or foil in half down the middle, place a fillet with its garnishes and seasonings on one side of each, fold the other side over and crimp the rounded edge tightly closed.
• Place in oven for 10 to 15 minutes, depending on how done you'd like to serve the salmon. The packages should puff up and make for dramatic serving.

• Ingredients
• Firm-fleshed fish varieties with plenty of flavor work best with the caper butter in this recipe; try halibut, salmon, or striped bass.
• Since they can be rinsed, salt-packed capers will actually taste less salty than those packed in brine and have a pure caper taste. Use nonpareil capers whenever possible.
