Heart Healthy Fish Recipe

Heart Healthy Fish For Two
INGREDIENTS:
2 4 ounce wild salmon fish fillets or steaks
3 small zucchini, sliced
1 C sliced mushrooms
1/4 red onion, sliced
2 T olive oil
1/4 C fresh lemon juice
1 T chopped fresh basil
dash of pepper
5 black olives, halved and pitted
Aluminum foil (2 sheets, 12 X 24)
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Fold sheets of foil in half to form a double thick square. Brush with a little oil. Prepare
all ingredients and layer half the ingredients in the middle of the foil (making two fish foil packets) in this
order: zucchini, mushrooms, fish, and onion slices. Sprinkle with olive oil, lemon juice, pepper and basil. Top
with black olives. Fold foil into airtight packets and bake for 20 minutes. When finished check fish to see that it is
done (should flake easily). Serve and pour any left over liquid in the foil over each serving.
