Foil Wrapped Savory Fish
"Before my divorce, I found myself the proud owner of lots of fish....he spent an awful lot of time fishing! So I had to find numerous ways of preparing it, so that I didn't have to eat the same thing over and over again! I can't say I miss the ex-husband, but I really do miss the fish! The sesame oil adds a nutty flavor....if you don't like sesame oil, use butter or margarine. I live on the gulf coast, so my fish of choice is red snapper, grouper, or amberjack...if I'm lucky triggerfish! A nice firm, white meat fish is preferably...nothing fishy tasting like mackerel!"

Enjoyed! I did use 2 pounds of flounder and 1 chicken breast for my non fish eating son. The onion mixture was enough for all. Cooked perfectly. Thanks! -
This was so easy and delicious! I'm not a big fish eater, but wanted something light and this was just perfect. -
I scaled this back for 2 serves and used salmon fillets skin on, that weighed just under the 1lb mark (about 15 oz). I added the soy sauce to the onion mix (and due to circumstances did this the night before but due to taking the wrong packet out of the freezer made something else so it had a bit of time to meld it flavours) but worked out great as I prepared it all in the morning and put in the fridge and was able to have dinner on the table in 30 minutes including taking photos - I used salmon fillets and only cooked for 15 minutes at 175C fan forced and they were a little overdone for my taste so would do again at 10 to 12 minutes for a slightly rarer finish, as they were well done but still moist. -
Very tasty! I used 2 mahi mahi filets and cut the recipe in half. Mine was a little spicy (I think I used too much ginger). Made for Zaar Hits 1-2-3 Tag Game 2011. -
Delicious and easy to make fish. I cut the amounts down to using only 1 pound of trout fillets but otherwise made as directed. Thanks for sharing!
