Ingredients

• 4 pieces (6 oz each) Halibut fillets
• 4 tablespoons Soy sauce (low sodium)
• 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil (toasted)
• 2 teaspoons Fresh ginger (grated)
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 2 stalks Green onions (sliced)
• 1 medium Carrot (julienned)
• 1 medium Red bell pepper (thinly sliced)
• 4 cups Baby bok choy (chopped)
• 1 Lime (cut into wedges, for serving)
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 4 sheets (12x12 inches each) Aluminum foil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Lay out 4 sheets of aluminum foil on a flat surface.

Step 3

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, grated ginger, and minced garlic to create the sauce.

Step 4

Place one halibut fillet in the center of each sheet of foil. Season each fillet lightly with salt and black pepper.

Step 5

Divide the green onions, carrots, red bell pepper, and baby bok choy evenly among the foil packets, spreading the vegetables around the halibut fillets.

Step 6

Drizzle approximately 1 tablespoon of the sauce over each halibut fillet and vegetables.

Step 7

Fold the sides of the foil over the halibut and vegetables, crimping the edges securely to seal each packet.

Step 8

Place the foil packets on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the halibut is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

Step 9

Carefully open each packet (watch out for steam) and transfer the halibut and vegetables to a serving plate.

Step 10

Garnish with lime wedges, and serve immediately.
