I haven’t tried this recipe yet, but I just saw it and thought it looked delicious (and easy!)

Tuscan Halibut Packets
serves 4

Four 6-oz halibut fillets
Salt & freshly ground pepper
1 small zucchini, quartered lengthwise and sliced into 1/4-inch slices
1 small yellow squash, quartered lengthwise and sliced into 1/4-inch slices
1/4 cup pitted Kalamata olives, chopped
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 Tbs. extra virgin olive oil
1/2 tp. dried basil

Preheat oven to 400F.  Cut four 12-inch squares of foil (or parchment paper) and set aside.

Pat the fish dry.  Place one portion in the middle of each piece of foil.  Sprinkle with salt and pepper and set aside.

Combine the zucchini, yellow squash, olives, cheese, olive oil and basil in a bowl.  Divide the mixture evenly and place on top of the halibut portions (about 1/2 cup per serving).

Fold the foil and seal the edges tightly with narrow folds.  Place the packets on a baking sheet and bake until the fish is cooked through and the vegetables are tender, about 18 minutes.

Open the packets carefully, place on individual plates and serve immediately with rice or pasta.
