Ingredients
4 red snapper filets - (5 oz ea), scaled
Salt, (optional)
Freshly-ground black pepper, to taste
1 tbsp olive oil
1 medium fennel bulb - (abt 6 oz), trimmed, and
sliced into julienne strips
2 leeks, white part only, cleaned, and
sliced into julienne strips
1 small zucchini - (3 oz), sliced julienne
strips
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 tsp crushed fennel seed, (optional)
2 small Roma tomatoes - (6 oz total), peeled, and
sliced into julienne strips
Lemon slices for garnish, (optional)
Directions
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Cut 4 pieces of parchment baking paper or
double thickness aluminum foil into 12- by 15-inch rectangles. Fold in
half from the short end and cut out a large heart shape along the fold,
like a valentine. When unfolded the heart should measure about 14 inches
wide and 12 inches long.
Rinse the red snapper filets; pat dry with paper towels. Season with salt
(if using) and pepper to taste. Unfold the heart and lay a piece of
snapper on the long side of each heart.
Arrange the vegetables over the pieces of fish in a decorative pattern.
Drizzle some of the olive oil over each.
Fold the heart over to enclose the fish and crimp the edges neatly to seal
completely. Transfer fish packets on a large baking sheet and bake for 20
minutes, until parchment is puffed and browned and fish is opaque and
flakes easily. Serve the closed packages at once, allowing each person to
open their own packet at the table.

Diet Baked Red Snapper In Parchment With Julienne Vegetables Recipe brought to you by Diet Recipes To-Go
Weight loss dietsThe Atkins’ Diet Developed by dr. robert atkins in the 1960s, the famous atkins diet achieved most of its fame during the last decade. Although highly controversial, it enables fat reduction whilst encouraging you to eat many foods that would not be part of a normal diet, such as bacon and hard cheese. On the atkins diet it is considered good to eat fat and protein, it is the carbs that are on the banned list. Because of this, it is known as a low carb/high protein, nutrition system. With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including cereals and pasta made from white flour. With this diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are still nutrient-rich unprocessed foods like meat, fish and, as a consequence, poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and, as a result, olive oil. The Atkins’ Diet Theory The logic of the atkins diet is that if we reduce your intake of carbs, we will consume the fat we have stored and we will lose weight The Glycaemic Index Diet The glycaemic index nutrition and weight loss system is reliant on the glycaemic index, a chart showing food types and a score illustrating the ease that the glucose and energy in the food type gets converted to sugar in your blood stream. The claim is that long-acting types of food (ie those with a low Glycaemic index score), suppress your appetite for longer and mean that you can cut down on food without being miserabl;e. It is also beneficial for diabetics, as the low GI types of food are useful in reducing increases in blood glucose amount. |
