Total Time 50 minutes mins
- 2 large zucchini
- 2 medium sized carrots
- 1 small red onion
- 1 large red bell pepper
- 2 garlic cloves large
- 1 T. olive oil
- salt and pepper to taste
- 4 6 oz. Chilean Sea Bass fillets
- 4 tsp. Emeril's Bayou Blast seasoning divided
- 4 lemon slices divided
- 8 sprigs fresh thyme divided
- 4 T. butter divided
- 4 T. white wine divided
- olive oil for drizzling
Julienne zucchini and carrots using a mandoline or by free hand.
Slice the onion and red bell pepper into thin slices
Mince garlic cloves with a hand grater
Place the veggies in a bowl and add olive oil, salt and pepper to taste. Toss to coat.
Season fillets with about 1 tsp. of Emeril's Bayou Blast seasoning on all sides.
Place fillet on right side of parchment and top with 1/4 of mixed veggies, 1 lemon slice, 2 sprigs of fresh thyme, 1 T. of butter, 1 T. of white wine and a drizzle of olive oil.
Fold the left side of the parchment to create a half moon shape and fold & crimp the edges from one side to the other to create a little cooking pouch for the fish. Make sure it's tight as you want all the steam to remain inside. Repeat with remaining three servings.
Place all of the pouches on a baking sheet and cook in a 375 degree oven for about 15-20 minutes depending on the thickness of your fillets. Say Grace and enjoy!
