I found a recipe from whole foods that called for a number of the herbs I have growing. Chilean Sea Bass en Papillote or Chilean Sea Bass in a Paper Pouch. I couldn't find Chilean Sea Bass but the recipe did say I could use any white fish so I used Cod. I had so much fun making this dish, from the origami boxes I made to contain the fish and vegetables to arranging my freshly picked herb bouquet atop the fish.
But that's where the fun stops.
I didn't like this dish very much. It was too...herb-y. The asparagus was also overcooked and mushy. But maybe its only purpose was to keep the fish out of the liquids that dripped to the bottom.
Before going into the oven to bake.
Asparagus, Bell Peppers, Cod, Herbs (Basil, Rosemary, Thyme, & Parsley) and Lemon
Finito!
Cod en Papillote served with Quinoa, Avocado & Baked Tofu "Sushi"
So, again, this was not delicious but maybe I just went overboard with the herbs. The recipe did call for just 1 sprig of a fresh herb but I threw in 1 sprig of each herb. Oops! For those of you who still want to try, here's the recipe.
Bon Appetit!
the dish wasnt as bad as you made it to be. i liked it. i think it would have also been good if there was more veggies and i think i would have liked it better with white rice instead of keenwah. keenwah is just too light. but ofcourse it was still good. ofcourse.
