You can use any white flaky fish in this versatile—and quick—dish.
Ingredients
Makes 4 servings
Step 1
Place four 14x12" sheets of parchment paper, or heavy-duty foil if grilling, on a work surface. Divide squash among parchment sheets, arranging on one side of sheet in thin layers. Sprinkle shallots and sliced basil over, dividing equally. Scatter tomato halves around squash. Drizzle each packet with 1 tablespoons wine and 1/2 tablespoon oil (add 1/2 tablespoon water to each if grilling). Season with salt and pepper. Place a fish fillet atop each portion. Season with salt and pepper; drizzle 1/2 tablespoon oil over each.
Step 2
Fold parchment over mixture and crimp edges tightly to form a sealed packet. DO AHEAD:Can be made 4 hours ahead. Chill. Let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes before continuing.
Step 3
Preheat oven to 400°F. Place packets in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet. Alternatively, build a medium fire in a charcoal grill, or heat a gas grill to medium-high. Bake or grill fish until just cooked through (a toothpick poked through the parchment will slide through fish easily), about 10 minutes. Carefully cut open packets (steam will escape). Garnish with basil leaves.

Back to TopHealthy and light but not all that flavorful. Definitely needs more seasoning. I would add more veggies too as they seem to disappear once cooked. Filets were thick so I cooked for 15 minutes on gas grill set at medium. The fish was perfectly cooked but blah.

I pretty much followed the recipe as written...who knows where I may have been a bit "heavy handed". Had some leftover (jarred) roasted red peppers that I sliced and added to each packet (though not really a whole lot). This was really, really good! We thought it had a good amount of flavor. Definitely a "keeper"!

I thought it was so plain. My husband found it "refreshing," but loaded it up with hot sauce, salt and pepper. Certainly a healthy alternative to fried food and fairly easy to make, but to me it simply lacked any pop or memorable flavor.

This was fantastic and super easy. I used a parchment sheet, and it was a tad short, so next time I will go back to the good old parchment roll where I can more appropriately size the paper. Because I had to double the paper to make the pouch it was a bit difficult to gage the temperature, so if you done the same as me, I would say less time is better. overall it was a hit. my husband loved it.

added fresh tarragon, red peppers slices & jalapeno slices from the garden plus some fresh lemon and garlic. great colors when you open up the foil. used foil instead of paper. Delicious dish. Will make for company next time.

A lovely light summer meal. Used the bounty from my garden and some Mahi Mahi from the freezer. No shallots, so subbed with some sweet onion. Next time I will add a bit of chopped garlic. Wished I'd done it on the grill as the parchment bags leaked a bit and the baking sheet was a bear to clean!

Way too plain. Won't make again.

I followed the recipe but, would make changes the next time around. To give the dish more flavor I would marinate the tomatoes in olive oil, salt and pepper and make a quick pesto with the basil. Otherwise, good dish.

We made these last night & they were so so so good. I just used frozen Tilapia I had in the freezer. I will definitely be making it like this every time

I made this last night and we loved it. I added a little garlic and used barramundi for the fish. We are going on vacation soon and trying to get in bathing suit shape. This is the way to do it with out feeling like it's torture.

This was easy and delicious! The flavor was very, very good. I don't really like fish, but am trying to eat healthier. This dish was so good, I can't wait to have it again. I made it exactly according to the recipe. My halibut fillets were cut on the thick side. I cooked it in my oven, in foil for 25 minutes. YUM!
