Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 (6-ounce) cod filets or other mild white-fleshed fish
2 medium zucchini, sliced into thin rounds
2 medium yellow summer squash, sliced into thin rounds
1 medium red onion, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Crushed red pepper flakes, for sprinkling
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons dry white wine
1 lemon, thinly sliced
4 sprigs of fresh thyme
1 tablespoon fresh juice from 1 lemon

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 450°F. Season fish with salt and pepper. Arrange 4 large sheets of aluminum foil on a work surface and set 1 fish filet on each piece of foil. Arrange zucchini, squash, and onion around each filet and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle fish and vegetables with red chile flakes. Drizzle 1/2 tablespoon oil and 1/2 tablespoon wine onto vegetables and fish. 2 Arrange a few lemon slices on top of each filet and top with a thyme sprig. Wrap foil around fish and vegetables, leaving some air space within each packet, and seal very well. Set packets on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for 8 minutes. Carefully open 1 packet to confirm fish is just cooked through; if not, re-seal packet and return to oven to continue cooking until cooked through. Serve right away, opening packets at the table.
