Shopping List
- 1 thin de-boned fish fillets (such as sole)
- 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
- chopped parsley, to taste
- salt and pepper, to taste
- lemon, for serving
Instructions
- Step 1: Rinse and pat the fish fillets dry.
- Step 2: Cut a piece of parchment paper, long enough to cover the bottom of the frying pan. Crumple it up into a ball, open it back up, and then spread it over the bottom of the pan. Place the fish fillet in the center of the parchment. Top with parsley, some salt and pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil.
- Step 3: Fold the parchment paper sides up over the fish, and then tuck in the ends underneath to make a simple packet with the fish inside. It can be loose, it doesn't need to be airtight. Pour 1/4 cup of water into the frying pan and cover with a lid.
- Step 4: Place the covered pan over medium-high heat and cook between 6 to 10 minutes, or until the fish has cooked through. Note: We find that a standard-sized sole takes about 8 minutes, but the exact cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the fillet.
- Serve: When finished, open up the parchment packet and plate the fish. Sprinkle with additional parsley, olive oil, and lemon juice. Enjoy.
