Halibut Baked in Parchment with Olives and Thyme..CLEAN DIET

By Bonnie T

Ingredients

• 2 5-oz portions halibut
• Sea salt
• 1 lemon, unpeeled, sliced thinly
• 1 zucchini, sliced thin, on the diagonal
• 2 sprigs thyme
• 1/4 cup of pitted, halved kalamata olives
• 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• Parchment paper, cut into two 12-inch circles

Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 425˚F.
Brush each parchment circle with oil. Place one piece of halibut in the middle of each circle. Season with sea salt.
On top of the fish, place three thin slices of lemon, alternating with three slices of zucchini; top with a sprig of thyme. Sprinkle with the olives and drizzle with olive oil.
Pull the sides of the parchment together like a calzone. Fold over and crinkle edges together to seal.
Place the parchment packages on a baking tray and place in the lower third of the oven.
Bake for 12–15 minutes; the parchment will puff up and brown lightly.
Remove from oven and place on plates. Open packages at the table.
If you have no parchment paper, use a covered ovenproof dish.
