Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces white fish fillets (such as cod, tilapia, or halibut)
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
- 2 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 1 piece red chili, finely sliced
- 2 pieces green onion, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 piece lemongrass stalk, finely sliced
- 4 tablespoons coconut milk
- 1 piece carrot, julienned
- 1 piece red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 4 sheets parchment paper or aluminum foil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, lime juice, fish sauce, brown sugar, grated ginger, and minced garlic to create the marinade.
Lay out 4 sheets of parchment paper or aluminum foil, each about 12 inches long.
Place one fish fillet in the center of each sheet and drizzle 1 tablespoon of the marinade over each piece. Spread the marinade evenly to coat the fish.
Top each fillet with a portion of red chili slices, green onions, chopped cilantro, sliced lemongrass, and julienned carrots and bell peppers.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of coconut milk over the ingredients on each packet.
Fold the parchment paper or foil over the fish to create a sealed packet. Be sure to fold the edges tightly to trap steam as it cooks.
Place the packets on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 12–15 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Carefully open the packets (beware of hot steam!) and transfer the fish and vegetables to a plate. Pour any remaining sauce from the packet over the top.
Serve immediately with steamed jasmine rice or a side of your choice. Enjoy!
