Packets of haddock with zucchini, tomatoes, and parsley pesto from Fish Without a Doubt: The Cook's Essential Companion by Rick Moonen and Roy Finamore

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Easy to prepare, tasty, and you end up with your perfectly cooked fish. The recipe allows for your own creative substitutions for veg and pesto.

    I riffed enough on this that I hesitate to review it, but it was so easy and good and so open to minor changes, that I wanted to call it out. I made the parsley pesto exactly as it, though, and just changed the packet composition a little. I mixed the pesto with thinly sliced zucchini, home-canned tomatoes, some dry white wine, and green garlic. Then placed that mixture on top of the fish, with leftover brown rice on the base of it all before sealing. The juices of the parsley pesto and veggie mixture infused the fish and rice and made a great combo. I'll be trying something similar again, for sure.

    Made this with farmer's market cherry tomatoes and zucchini, and it was absolutely amazing. The flavors were light and fresh and perfect for summer. (Next time I would do a separate packet of tomatoes and zucchini because I could have used more vegetables.) We went with cod since there was no haddock available and served it with whole-wheat couscous.
