Sugar snap peas166.7 g
Scallions, raw166.7 g
Ghee (clarified butter)3.5 g

Instructions

1

Preheat your oven to 400 deg F (200 deg C).

2

Fold a large piece of parchment paper in half to create a crease, then open it back up.

3

Lay the sugar snap peas and thinly sliced scallions in the center to create a 'bed' for the fish.

4

Place the tilapia fillet directly on top of the vegetables.

5

Drizzle the ghee over the fish and season lightly with a pinch of sea salt.

6

Fold the parchment over the fish and tightly crimp the edges to create a sealed pouch; this traps the steam, ensuring the fish cooks gently and stays moist.

7

Place the pouch on a baking sheet and bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

8

Carefully open the parchment pouch—watch out for the fragrant steam—and transfer the contents to a shallow bowl.

9

Serve immediately, letting the aromatic juices from the steamed vegetables pool at the bottom of the bowl.
