Servings
2Serving size
4 ounces fish with vegetablesThis recipe can be multiplied or divided by 2, but does not keep well.
Serve with Brown Rice or Jasmine Rice
Ingredients
| 1/2 ounce Mushrooms, shiitake, dried (dried porcini mushrooms are best) |
| 8 ounces, boneless Fresh flounder (2 4-ounce filets flounder or sole) |
| 4 spear, medium (5-1/4 inch to 7 inch long) Asparagus, raw |
| 1/4 tsp. Salt |
| 1/2 large (7-1/4 to 8-/1/2 inches long) Carrots, raw (peeled and cut matchstick) |
| 1/4 small Red bell peppers (cut matchstick) |
| 8 piece whole Crimini mushrooms (sliced) |
| 1/4 cup White wine |
| 4 tsp.. Unsalted butter |
Instructions
Place the dried porcini in a mini chopper or blender and blend on high until the mushrooms are powdered.
Slice the asparagus lengthwise and then cut the spears into quarters (each spear will end up with eight pieces)
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Fold the parchment so that it is almost a square (15 inches x 12 inches). Starting at one end of the folded edge cut a half of a heart shape in such a way that when the parchment is opened it is in the shape of a heart.
Rinse the sole filets in cold water and pat dry. Put two sole filets on each parchment paper. Center the filets on one side of the cut heart so that the other side will fold over the top of the filets easily. Do not let the filets overlap too much.
Sprinkle 1/8 tsp.. of the salt over each of the pairs of sole filets.
Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the porcini dust over each of the pairs of sole filets.
Scatter the carrots, red peppers, sliced mushrooms and asparagus over the fish evenly.
Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of wine over each pair of filets. Dot the top of each with teaspoons of Promise Buttery Spread.
Close the parchment paper by rolling the edge inward starting at the point of the heart and working around to the base of the heart. The parchment pouch with the fish inside will be in the shape of a large half circle.
Remove each pouch to a plate and let stand 30 seconds before cutting the pouch open. There will be some hot steam that escapes when the parchment is cut (be careful).
