Parchment-Cooked Fish with Morels, Spring Garlic, and Thyme

Parchment-Cooked Fish with Morels, Spring Garlic, and Thyme
Firm, white-fleshed halibut fillets cook with garlic scapes and fresh morel mushrooms in this gourmet dish. The fish and mushrooms are wrapped in parchment paper bundles to seal in all the flavor.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Place morel mushrooms in a dry skillet over medium heat and sprinkle with salt and black pepper.

Cook stirring often until the mushrooms release their juice and the juice evaporates about 5 minutes.

Sprinkle halibut fillets with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Heat butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat and cook the halibut fillets until golden brown on the outside about 2 minutes per side.

Remove fish from skillet and set aside.

Cook and stir garlic scapes in the same skillet used to cook fish until fragrant about 1 minute.

Remove pan from heat and stir morel mushrooms and thyme with the garlic scapes until combined.
