Caffeine Free Cod en Papillote with Lemon, Herbs & Cherry Tomatoes

Cooking fish in parchment is one of those techniques that feels fancy but is genuinely low-effort, and this cod dish delivers serious flavor with minimal cleanup. Each fillet gets layered over zucchini and cherry tomatoes, drizzled with garlic-infused oil and a splash of dry white wine, then sealed into its own little steam pocket with lemon rounds, fresh thyme, scallion greens, and parsley. The parchment traps all that fragrant heat, so the fish cooks gently in its own juices and comes out perfectly tender and flaky every single time. Opening the parcel at the table releases a cloud of herby, citrusy steam that makes the whole thing feel like a restaurant moment — no special occasion required. Because every ingredient here is naturally free of stimulants, there's nothing to swap or second-guess; just clean, bright flavors from produce, fresh herbs, and good fish. It's an ideal weeknight dinner that looks impressive enough for company, and the individual parcels make serving a total breeze.
