Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  2. Combine the couscous with the dill, water, lemon zest and half the lemon juice.
  3. Cut 4 sheets of parchment paper about 3 times as long as the fish fillets.
  4. Place an equal amount of the couscous in the middle of each of the 4 sheets.
  5. Place fish fillets on top of the couscous.
  6. Top each fillet with apple and fennel slices.
  7. Season with lemon juice, olive oil and a pinch of salt.
  8. Fold the top half of the parchment over and crimp and fold the edges about 1 inch at a time until you make your way around the entire parchment package. You want to create a fairly tight seal.
  9. Place the four packages on a baking tray and bake for about 15 minutes.
