Ingredients

  • 5 oz filet of salmon (or fish of choice)
  • 1/2 cup marinara sauce
  • 1/4 lemon, sliced
  • 1 cup green beans
  • 1 cup oyster or cremini mushrooms
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp basil, chopped
  • salt
  • pepper
  • 1 tbsp olives or capers

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400º F. Wash and pat fish dry.
  • Place a large piece of parchment paper on a baking sheet. Lay the green beans and mushrooms in a pile on the center of the paper. Lay the filet of fish on top.
  • Top with garlic, 1/2 cup of marinara, 2 slices of lemon, a sprinkle of fresh salt, a few cracks of fresh pepper, and a sprinkle of olives and/or capers. Top with fresh basil.
  • Wrap the paper over the fish lengthwise, and then roll the ends towards the center to secure the paper tightly closed. Keep the packet on the baking sheet.
  • Place baking sheet in the oven, and bake for 18-24 minutes, depending on how thick your fish filet is. Thicker filets may need more time. It’s done when the flesh flakes at the prod of a fork.
  • Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let rest for 2-3 minutes. Unravel the packets and top with more herbs and lemon, if desired.
