Directions

Embrace the #PowerOfFrozen with my red snapper en papillote recipe. Iceland’s frozen fish can be fresher than the fish counter, and I use their Arctic Royal frozen red snapper fillets to make this easy recipe.

  1. Peel the potato and slice like dofenoir potatoes then set aside.
  2. Peel the carrot and slice into 1cm pieces. Set aside with the potato.
  3. Take the red pesto and mix in the breadcrumbs until combined.
  4. Lay out a large sheet of baking paper and layer the ingredients in the middle. Start with the potato then washed mangetout, then carrot.
  5. Sprinkle over the oregano and a drizzle of olive oil.
  6. Place the frozen red snapper fillet on top, grind over some pepper then spread over the pesto & breadcrumb mixture.
  7. Securely rap the ingredients in the baking paper, securing at each end.
  8. Put on a plate and cook on high (800 watts) in the microwave for 5 minutes.
  9. Once cooked, remove from the microwave. Carefully unwrap, sprinkle with fresh basil and enjoy.

This is a really quick and easy way of getting 1 of your 2 weekly portions of fish. Plus, did you know in most fish more than half their body weight is muscle!
