Amount Ingredient
four (20 by 15-inch) pieces of parchment paper
vegetable oil for brushing the parchment
four (6 to 8-ounce) skinless flounder or orange roughy fillets
twelve 1/4-inch-thick tomato slices
8 x Kalamata or other brine-cured black pitted and sliced olives - thin
1/2 tsp dried hot red pepper flakes
1/2 tbl unsalted butter cut into bits
the zest from 1/2 orange removed with a vegetable peeler and cut into thin julienne strips
Instructions:
Instructions: On a work surface brush 1 of the pieces of parchment with the oil, turn it

over, and brush the other side with the oil. Arrange a second piece of parchment on top of the first, brush it with the oil, and layer the remaining 2 pieces on top in the same manner. Season the fish with salt and pepper, arrange 1 of the fillets on one half of the top piece of parchment, and top it with 3 tomato slices, one fourth of the olives, 1/8 teaspoon of the red pepper flakes, one fourth of the butter, one fourth of

the zest, and 1 herb sprig. Fold the other half of the parchment over the

fillet, beginning with a folded corner twist and fold the edges together forming a half-heart-shaped packet, and seal the end tightly by twisting it. Make 3 more packets with the remaining parchment and ingredients in the same manner. (Alternatively, the fish mixture can be wrapped in sheets of foil, oiling only the inside.) Bake the packets on a baking sheet in the middle of a preheated 450F. oven for 10 minutes and cut them

open before ser ving.

Serves 4.
