This adaptation from Tosca Reno's Clean Eating Cookbook made the repeat recipe file.


• 4 x 5-oz halibut fillets - we used true cod but any nice white fish will do!
• 1/4 cup pesto sauce
• 1 cup carrots, shredded (2 medium)
• 1 cup zucchini, shredded (1 small)
• 1 cup cabbage, shredded
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp sea salt
• 1 tsp freshly ground pepper
• 4 tsp best-quality olive oil
• 4 tsp low-sodium chicken stock

Preparation

Preheat oven to 450°F
Place each fish fillet in the middle of a large piece of parchment.
Spread 1 Tbsp pesto over fillet and top with 1/2 cup carrots, cabbage and zucchini.
Spread 1 minced clove of garlic over fillet and sprinkle with 1/4 tsp salt and black pepper. Then drizzle fillet with 1 tsp oil and 1 tsp chicken stock.
Fold parchment paper over the fish and seal edges with narrow fold. Mine didn't come so pretty sounding - I just wrapped the fish like an ugly Christmas gift.
Repeat with remaining parchment paper, fish and vegetables.
Place packets on baking sheets. Bake for 15 minutes or until puffy and lightly browned.
To serve, transfer packets to plate and open.

This was really delicious.
