Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Prepare four large pieces of parchment paper that are each large enough to fold over the fish filet, with a couple of inches extra for a border.
  • To assemble the papillote (paper parcel), place a quarter of the green beans in a single layer on the lower half of the parchment paper. Then place a fish filet on top of the green beans and season with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Top each filet with 1 teaspoon of butter, 1 tablespoon of capers, a quarter cup of parsley and 3-4 lemon slices.
  • Fold the parchment paper over the fish and fold down the edges, sealing it well to form a parcel. Place the parcel onto a baking sheet. Now repeat this process a further 3 times until all 4 parcels are made.
  • Place the baking sheet into the hot oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, until the fish is cooked through and flakes with a fork. Cooking time will vary depending upon the thickness of the fish filet.
  • Once baked, remove the tray from the oven and let it sit for a couple of minutes. Place a parcel onto a place and carefully open the parchment paper, allowing the steam to escape. Serve immediately.
