Here’s one of my favorite fast and easy recipes for busy weeknights that can also impress a table full of guests at a dinner party. Plus, it’s made in the oven so you can make it all year long. But just because these aren’t on the grill doesn’t mean they don’t scream ‘SUMMER’… I mean, check out these sweet little parcels of deliciousness!
I was a halibut newbie but now I’m hooked (pardon the pun). Fresh halibut is in season so get it while you can! But don’t stress if you can’t find it or if it’s too pricey. This is a dish you can make with most white fish such as cod, tilapia, and haddock. I’m currently on a dairy-free diet so I’ve made this with coconut spread instead of butter and it’s still tasty. So here you go– my go-to healthy recipe for busy weeknights. Enjoy!
