Arrange the packages on a baking sheet and place in the center of the hot oven. Bake for 20 minutes more or less, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily in the center. I cooked my swordfish for 25 minutes and it was perfect. My fish was very thick and had a bone. Serve a packet per dinner plate and cut open at the table, remove the paper. Serve with rice or crusty bread."]
