Ingredients:
4 (1 to 1 1/2-pound) sea breams, scaled and gutted, with head and tail intact |
salt and pepper |
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil |
1 red bell pepper, cored, seeded, and thinly sliced |
1 yellow bell pepper, cored, seeded, and thinly sliced |
1 green bell pepper, cored, seeded, and thinly sliced |
1 red onion, sliced thinly |
2 carrots, peeled and sliced thinly |
1/4 cup gaeta olives |
special equipment: parchment paper |
1 lemon, sliced thin to yield 8 slices |
3/4 cup dry white wine |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350 degrees F. 2. Season each fish on both sides and on the inside cavity with salt and pepper. Lay out 4 sheets of parchment paper (about 20 inches by 12 inches) and pour 2 tablespoons of olive oil on center of each sheet. Place one fish on each sheet of paper. 3. Divide the peppers, onion, carrots, and olives evenly among the 4 fish. Place 2 slices of lemon on the top of each fish. Pour 3 tablespoons of white wine over each fish. 4. Fold parchment in half and close the edge of the package to form a tight seal. Place the packages on a sheet tray and place in oven for 15 minutes. Serve immediately. |
