Ingredients:
4 ½ ounces boneless flounder fillet (substitute mild, flaky fish of your choice)
2 tablespoons yellow onion, peeled and chopped
¼ teaspoon freshly ground pepper, or to taste, a squirt lemon juice
1 ½ cups fresh green beans, washed, ends removed, and halved
1 tablespoon almonds, slivered.
Instructions: Preheat oven to 425°. Tear off an 18- by-12-inch piece of foil. Spray the centre lightly with vegetable spray, and place fish in the centre of the foil. Top with onion and sprinkle with cheese, pepper, and lemon juice. Fold foil loosely over fish, leaving ample space for air. Carefully turn up and seal the ends and the middle so that juices won’t leak out. Bake in the preheated oven 18 minutes. Meanwhile, steam the green beans, in a large pot fitted with a steaming basket, bring 1 inch water to boil. Add beans to the basket and steam until crisp- tender, 10 minutes. Drain, place in serving bowl, and fold in almonds. When fish is done, carefully open foil to prevent steam burns, and remove to a plate. Serve with green beans. Serve pineapple for dessert.
