Easy and tasty I skipped oil and used bacon fat for frying other ingredients. I think I would drain bacon fat and then use oil to saute next time. It would be healthier. This was amazingly good. Having a mixture of mushrooms helped. Pros: Not too many ingredients pretty healthy
I thought this was tasty! The only thing was I would have kept the polenta seperate next time. It got a little watery/sloppy.
Quick prep and clean-up; perfect for a singleton or couple i ended up using haddock as i couldn't get halibut at the time of my meal prep. i also didn't end up putting the polenta in the packet as i'm not really a polenta fan. instead i cooked up some farro for the grain. i was going to saute some kale but didn't have time. that would have made a great meal. Also i found the bake time a little long but maybe that was because i wasn't using the polenta. My partner scraped the plate- that's a sign of a keeper recipe! Pros: easy clean up; limited ingredients; quick
Easy quick meal I made this with my daughter who is newly married and just beginning to take cooking to the next level. We both loved the recipe! It was quick flavorful and perfect for an evening just hanging out. The prep time and cook time were accurate. We also made the recommended green beans and enjoyed those as well. Pros: Quick clean up
Surprising winner! I couldn't find any prepared polenta so I made my own with corn meal. I boiled 3:1 ratio of salted water to cornmeal for 25-30 mins stirring often with a whisk. It became very thick and dense. I placed it in a buttered dish and let it cool for 15 minutes as it takes the shape of the dish. Then it was ready to cut up and use in the recipe. I followed the rest of the recipe as is and it turned out beautifully. My partner said it was one of my best meals! We loved it! I would make this for company for sure. Pros: Easy-fancy Cons: none!
I love the "package" way to cook foods. Nice to be able to determine portion size. This recipe is unique with the pesto either pre-made or homemade. Great combination of flavors. A favorite fish recipe. Thank You
Quick tasty and gorgeous meal Just made this for dinner last night. The prep work is a snap and the packets come out of the oven beautifully - probably one of the best looking dishes I've made this year. I halved the recipe to feed two and omitted bacon as I am a pescetarian. It had wonderful flavor and was so filling that I couldn't finish my portion! Best of all the dish is low-fat carb-controlled and protein-rich. Highly recommended!
Absolutely one of my favorites for a dinner party. Used for a dinner party of 8 but made 10 packets. Super easy and holds well in oven for at least an hour. I made my own Polenta and added Cayenne Pepper and Pamesean Cheese this added another layer of flavor. Our guests loved the packets! Super fun surprise and Interesting way to serve. We served with roasted Brussel Sporuts and once packet opened the juices added to the flavor of the Brussel Sporuts. Look forward to making again.
