A quick. easy and healthy weeknight dinner fix with this Snapper, Swiss Chard, Lemon En-Papillote/Parchment-Steamed Snapper.

The fish and vegetables selection may vary due to availability and preferences e.g. Salmon, Zucchini, Carrot En-Papillote or this Cod, Artichokes, Tomatoes En-Papillote.


En papillote or parchment cooking is one of my favorite (if not, my favorite) ways to cook fish; and other seafood too, like this Seafood Shrimps and Clams Parcel.
