This recipe for Fish en Papillote (which is French for Fish in Parchment) couldn’t be easier – and talk about EASY cleanup! In this elegant recipe, cod (or another fish) is set atop sun-dried tomatoes, summer squash, corn, and green onions, then drizzled with lemon garlic herb butter and sprinkled with capers. The whole meal is wrapped in parchment paper, then baked. The parchment packet creates a seal that keeps the steam in while everything cooks, resulting in a perfectly flaky and moist result and infusing all of the flavors into the fish and veggies.
