The freshness of lemon, thyme, and parsley complement the delicate flavors of steamed fish in this nutritious, paleo-friendly recipe.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup chives, chopped
- 3 tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tbsp fresh thyme
- 1 lemon
- 2 (12 oz) pkgs squash noodles
- 4 (6 oz) tilapia fillets
Steps
- Preheat oven to 400°F. In a small bowl, stir together the oil, chives, parsley, and thyme. Grate zest of half the lemon into bowl. Season with pepper.
- Divide the squash noodles among 4 large squares of parchment paper, placing to one side of each sheet. Season with ⅛ tsp salt. Top with the tilapia fillets. Season tilapia with ⅛ tsp salt. Spoon oil mixture over fish, dividing equally. Thinly slice the lemon and place lemon rounds on top of fish.
- Fold the excess paper over fish. Fold edges and roll tightly to seal. Place packets on a baking sheet and bake 14–15 min., until fish is cooked through. Carefully (steam will be hot) open packets.
