Parchment Roasted Cod Fish & Artichokes

Getting to the heart of this matter is tough. Heart of the artichoke, I meant. Perhaps I just don't have the patience to get to the heart of it (artichoke).


En papillote or parchment cooking is my favorite way to cook fish (also check this recipe: En Papillote (Parchment-Cooked) Shrimps with Asparagus & Artichokes).

Easy, quick, healthy yet satisfying for weeknight dinner - parchment cooking is also a great way to experiment with different vegetables and to discover new tastes. Today, let the artichoke hearts befriend the fish.

This En Papillote Cod Fish with Artichokes and Tomatoes is adapted from Whole Foods Market, replacing halibut with cod; and using frozen artichoke hearts instead of water-packed artichokes.
