What is En Papillote?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Let’s just say I’m convinced that “en papillote<\/em>” (or “in paper”) has become one of my favorite ways to do weeknights. It’s a French cooking technique where a combination of fish (or poultry) and veggies are folded into a parchment paper pouch, then perfectly steamed in the oven. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

So if you’re looking to up the ante of my garlic herb baked cod<\/a>, this Mediterranean cod en papillote recipe is a no-brainer. It hits the spot with simple and fresh coastal flavors while ensuring you have four all-in-one meals done at the same time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
