Ingredients
4(13×13-inch)pieces of parchment paper
8paper clips
4(5-ounce)halibut fillets, each 1 inch thick
16plump asparagus spearsnot too thin, or they’ll overcook
32cherry tomatoes, stemmed
1/2teaspoondried dill weed
3tablespoonsDijon mustard
2tablespoonsreduced-sodium chicken broth
2teaspoonsolive oil
Instructions
Preheat oven to 450°. Place one halibut fillet in the center of each parchment square. Break off and discard woody ends of asparagus, then cut spears in half crosswise. Arrange asparagus around fillets (two pieces per side). Top asparagus with tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
In a small bowl, whisk together dill, mustard, broth, and olive oil. Pour sauce over fillets.
Bring two ends of parchment together over top of each fillet. Fold down 1 inch to seal, then fold over again, flat against fish. Fold up sides and secure each end to middle seam with a paper clip. Arrange parcels on a baking sheet. Bake on middle oven rack for 13 minutes. Open parcels with gloved hands. Test fish by inserting a sharp knife into thickest part; it should enter without resistance, and centers should be opaque. If not fully cooked, rewrap and cook 2–3 minutes more. Place parcels on serving plates, slit paper, and serve.
