Herb wrapped fish

Mark here...this recipe from Barefoot Contessa (I'm starting to realize I need to pull from different sources too!) I made for Battlestar Galactica's Season 2 premiere, "Scattered"

Herb Wrapped Fish

Ingredients

Cod fillets
salt and pepper
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
thyme sprigs
large pitted olives (I have no idea what mine were except that I got a variety of fancy ones)
1 egg
parchment paper

Preheat oven to 400F.

This recipe seems a little easier than it ends up.  First place you individual fillets on separate pices of parchment (big enough to fold together into a packet).  Sprinkle each side with salt and pepper and then mix the lemon juice and olive oil and top each fillet (you may need more than in the recipe).  Add a couple olives and sprig of thyme to each fillet.  Beat the egg to use as the "glue" to seal the parchment packet.  Brush the edges and fold to seal the packet (this can be a bit challenging as parchment paper does not want to to cooperate).

Place on baking sheet pan and cook 12-15 minutes.  Serve in the packet.
