    List of Ingredients

    DIABETIC FLOUNDER EN PAPILLOTE
    Yield: 6 Servings

    - 6 flounder, sole, or other lean white fish fillets (1-1/2 lbs)
    - Salt and pepper, to taste
    - 1 cup julienne, or shredded, carrots
    - 1 cup sliced mushrooms
    - 1/4 cup finely chopped shallots or onion
    - 2 cloves garlic, minced
    - 1/2 teaspoon dried tarragon leaves
    - 2 teaspoons margarine
    - 1/2 cup dry white wine or water
    - 1/4 cup finely chopped parsley leaves
    - 6 lemon wedges


    Recipe

    DIRECTIONS

    Cut six 12-inch squares of parchment paper. Fold in half, and
    cut each into a large heart shape. Open hearts and place 1
    fish fillet on each; sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper.

    Saute carrots, mushrooms, shallots, garlic, and tarragon in
    margarine in large skillet until carrots are crisp-tender,
    about 5 minutes. Stir in wine and parsley; season to taste
    with salt and pepper.

    Spoon vegetable mixture over fish. Fold heart packets in half,
    bringing edges together. Crimp edges tightly to seal. Place
    packets on jelly roll pan, and bake at 425 degrees F. until
    packets puff, 10 - 12 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges.

    Note: Aluminum foil can be used in place of parchment paper;
    bake fish 15 minutes.
