How to Make Baked Fish Parcels
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Prepare the fish: Gently pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt, pepper, and ginger.
- Assemble the parcels: Place a fish fillet in the center of each large square of parchment paper. Top with sliced shiitake mushrooms, chopped scallions, and a drizzle of soy sauce.
- Add vegetables and aromatics: Arrange sliced bell peppers and bean sprouts around the fish.
- Seal the parcels: Bring the four corners of the parchment paper together and fold over to create a tight seal, tucking in the edges to prevent leakage. Crimp the edges to ensure a secure seal.
- Bake: Place the sealed parcels on a baking sheet and bake for 17 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Serve: Carefully open the parcels (be mindful of steam!) and serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles. Garnish with fresh cilantro, if desired.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
