Instructions

2-serving instructions (4-serving modifications in red)

Wash produce before use

1

Prep the vegetables and fish

Heat the oven to 400°F.
  • Cut away any core from the cabbage; coarsely chop the cabbage.
  • Peel and thinly slice half the onion; coarsely chop the remaining onion for the salsa. [Peel and thinly slice 1 onion; peel and coarsely chop 1 onion.]
  • Pat the fish dry with a paper towel; season with salt and pepper and rub all over with the smoky spice blend.

2

Assemble the parchment packets

Prep and cook instructions are identical for both fish options.
Lay the parchment paper sheets side by side. Divide the cabbage, sliced onion, and fish between the sheets. Drizzle each with 1 to 2 teaspoons oil and season with salt and pepper. Working with 1 sheet at a time, bring 2 opposite sides of the parchment to the center and fold them together several times to create a tight seam. Fold up each end to form a tight seal.

3

Bake the packets

Place the packets on a sheet pan, sealed sides up, and bake until the parchment is puffed and browned and the fish is opaque and flaky, 12 to 15 minutes.
While the packets bake, prepare the salsa.

4

Make the avocado-citrus salsa

  • Peel the cucumber, if desired; cut the cucumber in half lengthwise, then crosswise into enough ½-inch-thick half-moons to measure 1 cup [2 cups].
  • Using your hands or a sharp knife, peel the orange; cut the fruit crosswise into ½-inch-thick slices. Discard any seeds.
  • Cut the avocado in half lengthwise. Remove the pit, scoop out the flesh, and cut the flesh into ½-inch pieces.
  • Zest and juice the lime. [Zest and juice 1 lime; save the remaining lime for another use.]
  • Coarsely chop the cilantro.
In a medium bowl, stir together the cucumber, orange, avocado, lime zest and juice, cilantro, and chopped onion; season to taste with salt and pepper.

Serve

Open the fish packets, being careful of any venting steam, and transfer to individual plates. Serve the avocado-citrus salsa on the side.
