Directions
Fish Preparation
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Cut eight squares of parchment paper 12 to 14-inches each (you can use aluminum foil). Cut in a heart shape large enough to wrap fish, herbs, and onions.
Place fish towards the middle of one half of the paper. Sprinkle with cipolline onions and salt lightly. Top with baby spinach leaves, kalamata olives, and pine nuts. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and herb of your choice. Drizzle with a little olive oil. Fold the other half of the parchment over the fish and vegetables and fold the edges to form a half moon shape and seal the packet. Place packets on a cookie sheet and bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until done.
Bring to the table closed to hold flavors in and slash to open before eating.
Cipolline Onion Preparation
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
Trim the root end of the onion off. If hard to peel, drop in boiling water for a minute and plunge into cold water. Skin should slip off easily. Drizzle with olive oil and season lightly with salt, pepper, and fresh herbs. Wrap in foil and place in a small shallow pan. Add ¼ inch water and bake for 35 to 40 minutes.
