This is a new recipe for us, but it uses one of our favorite fish preparations - packet cooking. Especially if you're new to fish cooking and wary of either over or undercooking, packets are simple and offer a very consistent product. They're also a very healthy way to make fish, as very little added fat is involved. I'm also a big fan of packets because often everything gets cooked together, you typically add raw veggies, fish, and sauce and, presto, dinner! So, all that said, this particular packet recipe is not my favorite. First, there's a fair amount of prep before you load the packets. Second, M and I both felt the result was fine, but not much more than fine. Definitely not a repeater. Oh well, it happens.

Prep Notes
Difficulty: Moderate
Chopping: Chard, carrot, celery, scallions, orange, lemon, red bell pepper
Time: 45 minutes
Make ahead: The bean salad can be done whenever. The greens can be done ahead, but the fish should be last minute.

Reaction
J: "Not worth it."
M: "Our super easy poached fish is better than this."
