Being a fan of simplicity, the recipe below is one I've made many a time, and, despite its appearance of having taken hours to prepare, it’s ready to go in less than fifteen minutes of prep!
Ingredients
- 4 (6 oz.) wild, local fresh fish of your choice, deboned with skin on
- 2 carrots, peeled and julienne cut into 3″ pieces
- 2 leeks, washed and julienne cut into 3″ pieces
- 4 celery ribs, julienne cut into 3″ pieces
- 1 large Meyer lemon, ½ juiced and ½ cut into four round slices, pits removed
- 4 Tbsp. coconut oil
- Garlic powder, to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 4 cups wild arugula
- Parchment paper or 4 parchment bags
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
- Pat fish dry.
- Open each bag and place some of the carrots, leeks and celery pieces evenly in each. Place fish on top.
- Place one lemon slice on top of each.
- Drizzle lemon juice on top.
- Add one Tbsp. coconut oil on top of each piece of fish.
- Add garlic and pepper to taste.
- Fold bag and place on baking tray, making sure not to overlap.
- Cook for 15 minutes or until internal temp equals 160 degrees F (unless you’re using a sushi grade of fish).
- Divide arugula into four even portions. When fish is done, tear open bag and slide contents on top of bed of arugula.
