Prep Time: 15 mins

Cook Time: 30 mins

Total Time: 45 mins

Ingredients

  • 4 6-ounce boneless skinless white fish filets (such as branzino, bass, flounder, etc.)
  • 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt and black pepper (divided)
  • 1½ cups canned white beans (drained and rinsed)
  • ½ cup castelvetrano olives (crushed)
  • ½ cup marinated artichoke hearts (quartered, marinating liquid reserved)
  • ½ cup cherry tomatoes (or grape tomatoes, halved)
  • 1 lemon (zest and juice of)
  • 2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill (chopped)
  • 4 large pieces parchment paper (double the length of the fish)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375F.
  • Season the branzino filets with 1/2 teaspoon salt & bring to room temperature, uncovered.
  • In a medium bowl, combine white beans, olives, artichoke hearts, 2 tablespoons artichoke marinade, cherry tomatoes, lemon zest & juice, olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt & 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  • Cut parchment into 4 large rectangles, about double the length of the fish.
  • Center each filet in the parchment and top with a heaping 3/4 cup of the bean salad. Tightly fold the parchment closed so no steam comes out*, place the parcels into a baking dish.
  • Bake 30 minutes, until the fish is cooked through.
  • To serve, unfold the parchment and top each with parsley and dill.

Notes

Variations:

  • Other Mediterranean ingredients can be added to the salad for a flavor boost; think olive bar ingredients like capers, sun dried tomatoes, marinated garlic or mixed olives.

*Folding the parchment does not have to be pretty, just efficient. Start at one end folding the two pieces together and then follow the seam.
