Instructions

Working time approx. 15 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 35 minutes

from the oven, easy to prepare, low carb suitable

First, tear off two large pieces of aluminum foil (approx. 40 cm long) and place them on the work surface. Spread a tablespoon of olive oil in the center of each piece of aluminum foil. Preheat the oven to 180°C (fan oven). Then halve the zucchini lengthwise and cut into thin strips, and cut the peppers into small pieces. Deseed and chop the tomatoes into small pieces. Halve the onion and cut into thin half rings. It is important that the vegetables are not too large so that they are ready within the specified time. Distribute the chopped vegetables between the two pieces of aluminum foil and season with herbs, salt, and pepper. Briefly rinse the fish fillets with water, pat dry, and then place them on top of the vegetables. Squeeze a tablespoon of lemon juice over each fish fillet and season the fish with a little more pepper and salt. Now seal the aluminum foil into a small parcel. It is important that the seal is tightly closed, as this allows the fish and vegetables to cook properly in their own juices. Place the parcels on a baking sheet and place in the oven for 20 minutes. Serve with rice or baguette, which is a great way to soak up any liquid. Without any side dish, it’s low-carb. Note from Chefkoch.de: If you don’t want to use aluminum foil, use parchment paper or baking paper for the parcel. Using lemon juice and salt is recommended for health reasons. Aluminum foil with baking paper on the side closest to the food has also been available for some time, and this is also recommended.
