This is one of the first dishes I developed for the dinner menu at The Smile. We didn’t have a grill, gas ovens, or any ventilation, so I came up with this parchment-cooked cod so that the whole restaurant wouldn’t smell like cooking fish. While it’s a little finicky, I love this method because the ingredients all steam together, infusing the cod with lots of flavor. It’s also great to make for dinner parties, since you can prepare the parchment packets in advance, keep them in the fridge,
