Fish en Pappilote (fish in paper) recipe


I love this recipe because it's so simple to make and there is no cleaning up afterwards! Just bake the fish wrapped in baking paper and put the cooked parcel directly on your dinner plate to serve.  Salmon is high in Omega-3 fatty acids which act to reduce inflammation in the body, which is good for heart health.  You can put a range of your favourite veggies in the parcel.  I choose veggies which are not starchy so I keep my insulin levels from spiking after dinner.  This recipe is great to make when you're super busy but still want to eat well. 

Ingredients (per serve)

1 piece salmon (100-150g)
2-3 large handfuls of chopped Asian greens of choice
minced garlic to taste
minced ginger to tast
chopped red chilli to taste
2 chopped button mushrooms
1/2 carrot, julienned
a dash of olive oil and a dash of lime juice
salt and pepper to taste

Method

On a large piece of baking paper (glad bake) place all vegetables, starting with Asian greens, and spices.Place salmon on top of vegetables and sprinkle with oil, juice and salt and pepper.Fold paper around ingredients to seal in moisture and place on a baking tray.Bake in oven at 180 degrees Celcius for about 20-25 mins.Transfer paper and contents to a plate to serve and enjoy!
