1
Preheat the oven to 500F.
-
2
Fold four 9 x 13-inch pieces of parchment paper in half.
-
3
Starting at the top of the fold, cut each piece into a large half heart shape (takes you back to Valentines Day in school, doesnt it?).
-
4
When the papers are opened, they should be the shape of full hearts.
-
5
If theyre not perfect, thats okay, but a big heart is always better.
-
6
In a large bowl, combine the zucchini, haricots verts, tomatoes, onion, garlic, and red pepper.
-
7
Toss with olive oil and season with the thyme and salt.
-
8
Oil and salt the halibut as well.
-
9
This is the only chance to season the veggies and the fish, so take advantage of it!
-
10
Taste the veggies; they should taste good.
-
11
If not, adjust the seasoning.
-
12
Open the parchment paper hearts and brush the paper with olive oil, leaving a 1-inch border.
-
13
Divide the seasoned veggies evenly between the parchment hearts, then lay the fish on top and place two lemon slices on top of each fillet.
-
14
Close the paper in half over the fish.
-
15
Working from one end of the parchment to the other, fold the bottom of the paper over the top to create a closure.
-
16
The seal needs to be really secure so the steam wont escape during the cooking process.
-
17
Before the package is completely sealed, carefully pour an equal amount of wine into each and complete the enclosure.
-
18
Put the packages on a baking sheet and cook for 8 to 9 minutes.
-
19
Remove the packages from the oven and place each one on a serving dish.
-
20
Give each diner the chance to slice open their own package so they can enjoy the burst of aromatic steam that will be releasedits like a fish facial!

Parchment is traditional here, but you can use aluminum foil to wrap your fish and it will work just fineeven easier to seal!
